Nigerian footballers deny international bank card theft.
Nigerian footballers tried for theft
Seven men, including six former Nigerian football players and a Cambodian interpreter, were tried by the Phnom Penh Municipal Court yesterday for their alleged involvement in hacking bank card PIN numbers and stealing money from Australian bank accounts in 2016.
At yesterday’s trial, the seven accused denied the accusations. They all denied knowing the Nigerian group in Australia.
They also denied committing the things they were accused of. They said they had never used and did not know how to use credit cards and claimed to not know the technology used to hack the PIN numbers.
Mr. David said he was a professional footballer in Nigeria and had played in Cambodia with the Preah Khan Reach Football Club since 2008.
He said he had never done anything wrong in the eight years he lived in the kingdom prior to his arrest.

“I do not know the Nigerian group living in Australia. I know nothing about this case.“I did not do anything,” he said. “I am only the victim of police arrest.”
He said he was arrested after he traveled with his friend, Mr. Frank, to receive a parcel sent from Australia at DHL Express in Phnom Penh on the morning of May 26, 2016...

Re: Nigerian footballers deny international bank card theft.
Six Nigerian men and one Cambodian national were sentenced on theft charges to one year in jail yesterday, after which the foreigners will be expelled from Cambodia and banned from entering the country for five years.
The seven men - several of whom are professional footballers - were arrested in May and August last year for allegedly stealing credit card information after the Cambodian police received a tip from Australian authorities.
