“Upon receipt of the report, the DPO of Dandume promptly mobilised men from both Operation Sharan Daji and Operation Restored Peace and responded to the scene. The team gallantly engaged the suspected bandits in a fierce gun duel and succeeded in repelling the attack.

 

“In the course of scanning the scene, the body of one suspected bandit, as well as one general-purpose machine gun with 27 rounds of 94.5mm live ammunition, were recovered from the scene,” he said.

 

According to him, the Commissioner of Police, Aliyu Abubakar Musa, commended the officers for their outstanding display of bravery and professionalism and urged the good people of the state to continue providing timely information on suspected criminal activity to enable the command and other security agencies to act swiftly.
