The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) has confirmed the apprehension of a person of interest in a case involving a company which had complained about the irregular transfer of its assets.
In a statement posted on its X account on Friday, February 13, 2026, the investigative agency said the individual is being processed in connection with the fraudulent transfer of motor vehicles belonging to Digitalent Systems Limited.
Fraud committed
According to the DCI, weeks of investigations by detectives attached to the Serious Crime Unit linked the individual to the transfer of two vehicles, a Land Rover Discovery and a Nissan Sylphy, both registered under the company’s name.
“Detectives from the Serious Crime Unit have apprehended Boris Owiye Agonga in connection with the fraudulent transfer of Digitalent Systems Limited’s vehicles.
“Using a web of forged documents, the person of interest, who is one of the company directors, deceitfully transferred ownership of not one but two company vehicles: a Land Rover Discovery and a Nissan Sylphy, into his name.”
According to the investigators, the forged documents were used to effect the change of ownership, allowing the vehicles to be registered under private ownership without the company’s consent.
Vehicle recovered
DCI further confirmed that one of the vehicles has already been recovered.
“Thanks to swift investigative work, one of the stolen vehicles, the Land Rover Discovery, has been recovered and is now securely held as an exhibit,” the statement added.
They stated that the recovered vehicle is being preserved as evidence as authorities continue with investigations into the circumstances surrounding the transfer.
“The person of interest remains in custody as processing continues ahead of arraignment,” DCI stated.
