Eleven hostages have escaped from bandits’ camps at the outskirts of Sabon Birni in the Igabi Local Government Area of Kaduna State.
According to the Commissioner, ongoing security operations dislodged many of the bandits’ camps, leaving them in disarray and enabling the escape of the hostages being held there. Others, whom he said were travellers from Maiduguri to Ilorin, but abducted along the Kaduna-Zaria road, are Fatima Umar, Zara Umar and her infant, Hadiza Madu Sharif, Hauwa Ali, Zara Madu Sharif and Maryam Madu.“It was reported that the families of those kidnapped at Dumbin Rauga had collectively paid a ransom of N3m, but the bandits reneged on the agreement to release the captives, insisting that two motorcycles must be included in the ransom deal.
