Bandits Kill 30 in Fresh Attack on Katsina Communities
No fewer than 30 persons have been killed in a fresh attack launched by suspected bandits on Tsauwa and Dankar villages of Batsari Local Government areas of Katsina State.
While the bandits met stiff resistance in Dankar from the security operatives and residents, they had a field day in Tsauwa where they sacked the village and looted shops, houses and rustled unspecified number of cattle. Our correspondent who visited the affected communities amidst tight security observed that the hoodlums burnt most of the victims beyond recognition and left many in critical condition following gunshot injuries they sustained.
He said: “We were observing Magrib when the bandits riding on motorcycles laid siege on our village and started shooting sporadically. They killed 23, injured some people and rustled many of our cattle including sheep and goats. Addressing journalists in Tsauwa village, the State Commissioner of Police, Sanusi Buba, who was visibly disturbed by the attack said the bandits killed 30 persons in Tsauwa and Dankar villages.
