The Kaduna State Police Command announced that its operatives have arrested three members of a notorious kidnapping syndicate in the state.
This is contained in a statement by the command’s spokesperson, ASP Mansir Hassan, on Friday in Kaduna.
Hassan said the suspected kidnappers were nabbed on Tuesday and that one AK-47 rifle with an empty magazine was recovered from them.
Hassan said the suspects were arrested during an intelligence-led operation by officers of the command.
“During interrogation, all three suspects confessed to being part of a kidnap syndicate known for terrorising the Kaduna-Abuja Expressway.
“The syndicate has been linked to a string of violent incidents across the region, causing distress among residents and travellers alike.
“The suspects are currently cooperating with the police and have provided crucial information to assist in the possible arrest of other syndicate members at large and to facilitate the recovery of additional firearms in the group’s possession,” he said.
