NOIDA - A Nigerian national was arrested in Noida Thursday for credit card fraud, police said.
Oyesbaniji Kamoru Funday, 22, was arrested red-handed at a shopping mall.
According to A.K. Tripathi, Superintendent of Police (City), Funday was residing at Madangir in Delhi and had come to the GIP mall for shopping Thursday.
