Operatives of the Kaduna State police command, together with officials of Civilian JTF, said they ‘stumbled on’ and rescued three kidnap victims who were roaming in the forest of Tsohon Gaya village of Chikun Local Government Area of Kaduna State.
The operatives were on routine patrol when they saw the victims, who, according to the command’s spokesman, ASP Mohammed Jalige, were “extremely exhausted and weak.”
“The victims were safely evacuated and rushed to Police Clinic, Kaduna, where they are currently being resuscitated and will subsequently be handed over to their immediate families,” he said in a statement.
Jalige said further that during the course of investigation, the three victims were identified as Zaharaddeen Ibrahim, Nura Nuhu (who were kidnapped recently along Kaduna – Kachia Road) and Abraham Aniya, one of the students of Bethel Baptist Secondary School, Kujama that were kidnapped the previous week.
He said the command is currently working at ensuring that more victims are rescued within the shortest possible time.
