A community leader from the area confirmed the incident to Daily Trust on Tuesday, October 15, 2024.

“The arrangements had been concluded with the troops with the man who will be taking the ransom to them and a vigilante. On getting to the particular location, the troops took cover,” he said.
“As two of the bandits came out to pick the ransom, the troops opened fire at them and killed the two of them instantly.”
He said the abducted victims were rescued by the troops and reunited with their families.
