A notorious kidnap for ransom
gang that has been linked to kidnapping
and violent crimes along
Kaduna-Abuja and its environs has been arrested after coordinated and
painstaking investigation by the Intelligence Response Team(IRT) of the IGP’s
monitoring unit.
These dare devil gangsters were
responsible for the kidnap of Hon Sani Bello, a current member the House of
Representatives, on 2nd August 2016 in his farm along Kaduna –Abuja road.
Also, the Kidnap of other persons were traced to them.
The suspects were trailed and
rounded up at Ungwan Kawu village in Dan Dumi L.G.A in Katsina State.
During interrogation, the
suspects voluntarily confessed to the commission of the offence and also admitted to the various roles
individually and collectively played in their criminal enterprise.
One of the suspects, Shaibu
Adamu led operatives to a location in the nearby village (Kawu village) where
he buried part of the ransom money. The
sum of two hundred and fifty thousand naira only (N250,000.00) in a polythene
bag was recovered and marked as exhibit.
The arrested suspects are
assisting the Police to apprehend other fleeing members of the gang. The
suspects will soon be arraigned in court for justice to take its course.
The Ag Inspector General of
Police, IGP Ibrahim k. Idris wishes to reassure Nigerians that the Police will
not relent its commitment and determination to ensure that criminals and their
collaborators have their day in court to face the wrath of the law.
However, members of the public
must see law enforcement as a collective responsibility of all sundry and avail
the Police credible information and assistance.
Thank you all for your
attention and God Bless.
