It was gathered that the eight suspects were handed over to the EFCC by the Nigerian Navy Forward Operating Base, Akiama Road, Bonny Island, Port Harcourt.
The commission in a statement on its website said the suspects were arrested with an unquantified amount of illegally acquired Automotive Gas Oil (AGO) along the Bonny waterways.
The Naval Hand-Over Officer, Lt. Com. G.Y Gwaza, said the vessel, MV Cabrini, and her eight crew members were arrested during an operation on November 8, 2023.
He said the suspected oil thieves were handed over to the EFCC for further investigation and possible prosecution.
The Chief Superintendent of the EFCC, (CSE) Itoro Levi, who received the suspects assured that thorough and professional investigations would be carried out on the case and thanked the Navy for its collaborative efforts with the EFCC.
The Navy on December 12, 2023 handed over three arrested suspects to the police for facilitating a fake oil approval for a Marine Vessel (MV) known as Mother Gabrini in Rivers state.
