Amnesty International has condemned the killing of at least 30 people in a deadly overnight attack on Naridon Village in Kamaru Ward of Kauru Local Government Area, Kaduna State, describing the assault as one of the deadliest attacks on communities in southern Kaduna in recent years.
According to Amnesty, heavily armed gunmen stormed the village on Monday night, killing residents and pursuing those who fled into nearby bushes, where many were reportedly slaughtered.
In a statement issued on Monday, the organisation said dozens of residents remain unaccounted for, while local efforts to determine the full death toll are ongoing as more bodies continue to be discovered in homes and surrounding farmlands.
Amnesty International said it obtained disturbing evidence from the aftermath of the attack, including images allegedly showing entire families killed inside their homes.
“Gory images obtained by Amnesty International show entire families locked up and slaughtered inside their bedrooms.
