The Lagos Zonal Command 1 of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has successfully concluded the prosecution and obtained the conviction of 15 Chinese nationals linked to cyber-terrorism and internet-related offenses.
The convictions were issued by two Federal High Court judges sitting in Ikoyi, Lagos — Justice Ayokunle Faji and Justice Dehinde Dipeolu — after separate arraignments on various cybercrime-related charges.
Those convicted include: Ling Yang, Xiao Hong Will, Wang Zheng Ming, Wang Jia Qi, Yang Sheng, Peng Sen Lin, Guo Xiao Fei, Chen An Shun, Zhao Ying Bin, Yu Zi (also known as Wei Xue Huan), Zhang Yang, Wang Zhi Cheng, Yang Sheng, and Lu Yubo. Notably, both Peng Sen Lin and Yang Sheng appear twice, which may suggest they were involved in multiple cases.
Each of the individuals faced different charges tied to cyber-terrorism and internet fraud, for which the courts found them guilty.
