“At about 0305hrs, on Tuesday, July 15, 2025, a patrol team from B Division, Lafia, discovered a Peugeot pick-up van with all doors left wide open in a suspicious manner. Upon closer examination, officers observed that the gate to the victim’s residence was also ajar, prompting immediate security concern.

“A swift search of the premises confirmed that Barr. Yusuf Musa was missing, along with his GMC vehicle, bearing registration number KUJ 88 PA, raising strong suspicion of an abduction.

“In response, the Commissioner of Police, CP Shetima Jauro Mohammed, promptly activated a coordinated tactical operation by alerting all relevant police divisions across the state—including units in Akwanga, Andaha, Garaku, and Kadarko—and deploying surveillance along strategic routes to track and intercept the fleeing suspects,” the PPRO said.
