The Kaduna State Police Command has rescued three kidnapped victims who spent more than 40 days in captivity and arrested five suspected informants linked to a kidnapping syndicate.
The Command’s Public Relations Officer, DSP Mansir Hassan, disclosed this in a statement issued on Saturday in Kaduna.
Hassan said the rescue operation was carried out by a joint security team led by personnel from Fushin Kada, in collaboration with the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) in Hunkuyi.
According to him, the operation followed sustained intelligence gathering, strategic surveillance, and coordinated security efforts that led operatives to a suspected bandits’ hideout.
“Upon sighting the advancing security personnel, the bandits fled the area, abandoning the victims who were subsequently rescued unharmed,” he said.
The rescued victims were identified as Ekechikwu Omale, Ummi Salisu of Kudan Local Government Area of Kaduna State, and Pastor Daniel Tanko Bawa of Tufa Village in Niger State.
