Men of the Kaduna State Police Command have killed one bandit, arrest two others and recovered weapons around the Amana Maimadachi village, Igabi Local Government Area of the state.
“Upon receipt of the distress report, the crack operatives alongside other local security stakeholders swiftly mobilized and moved to the location where they engaged the bandits and thwarted their attempt to kidnap law-abiding citizens.
“In the tactically executed operation, one of the armed bandits clad in military camouflage uniform was neutralized, while others escaped with serious gunshot injuries. A serviceable AK47 rifle loaded with four rounds of live ammunition was recovered from the neutralized bandit. “In a related development, Operatives of the Command attached to Saminaka Division acted on credible information and launched a successful operation on the 13th January 2023 at Warsa Piti Area of Saminaka Lere LGA where they arrested two bandits, namely; Dauda Yusuf ‘m’ 35yrs, and Sani Ibrahim ‘m’ 30yrs. When a thorough search was conducted on them, a locally fabricated GPMG rifle with its six rounds of live ammunition and a Dane gun were equally recovered.
“Upon preliminary investigation, the suspects confessed to the ownership of the weapons and are currently assisting the Police in an investigation at the end of which they will be charged to court.”All rights reserved.
