Three arrested during ‘foiled abduction’ in Kaduna
Troops of the Nigerian navy have arrested three suspected kidnappers in Kujama, Chikun local government area of Kaduna state.
Samuel Aruwan, commissioner for internal security and home affairs, made this known in a statement on Saturday.
He said the kidnappers were apprehended on Friday when they attempted to abduct a point of sale (POS) agent along with a customer in Kujama.
“The bandits, in a black Toyota Corolla, drove up to the shop of a POS agent in the area and attempted to kidnap the operator and a customer who was there for a transaction,” Aruwan explained.
“Alarm was raised and the Nigerian Navy troops from the Kujama checkpoint arrived at the scene to apprehend the suspects before they could escape with their captives.
“The apprehended bandits, identified as Kabiru Yusuf, Salihu Ibrahim and Naziru Haruna, have been handed over to the police for further investigation and prosecution.”
The commissioner said the would-be victims — Franklin Silas and Blessing Fada — are safe and cooperating with the police in their investigation.
