Police rescue 3 kidap victims, recover operational vehicles in Kaduna

The Police Command in Kaduna State says its operatives have rescued three kidnapped victims, recovered arms, ammunition and operational vehicles in two different locations.


The Command’s Public Relations Officer, DSP Muhammad Jalije, confirmed the development in a statement issued on Sunday in Kaduna.


Jalige said, the Inspector General of Police, (IGP) Usman  Baba’s directives on rigorous visible patrols and  domination of public space by Police had continued to yield the desired outcome.


According to him, these accomplished feats were against the backdrop of a complaint received on  Sept. 4,  that one Yusuf Abubakar  of Dorayi quarters in Kano State has been abducted.


“On the same date at Barde village in Ikara LGA of Kaduna State, the abductors were demanding for N50 million ransom.

“On receipt of the complaint, the Commissioner of Police Kaduna State, Mr Yekini Ayoku,  directed the Divisional Police Officer Ikara to spread his operational dragnet to ensure the victim was rescued unhurt and culprits arrested.
