The Special Investigation and Prosecution Task Force on Electricity Offences, constituted by the Federal Ministry of Justice, has arrested seven suspects over offences of prepaid metre cloning, metre theft and vandalism in Kaduna State.
The task force which was inaugurated in Kaduna last year to assist in the fight against electricity offences paraded the suspects at its office at the Federal Secretariat, Kaduna.
The team leader of the task force, ASP Aliyu Bamali, said the suspects had cloned at least 13 metres, adding that one Iliya Maigari was arrested for working with one Alex Zamani, a technician, to clone metres or transfer memory from one metre to another.
