A statement issued by the Kaduna State Command’s spokesperson, ASP Munsir Hassan, disclosed that on May 29, 2024, acting on a tip-off from a concerned citizen, a joint patrol team comprising officers from the Saminaka Police Division and the Hunters Group in Lere local government area (LGA) of the State, successfully arrested three suspects involved in kidnapping and cattle rustling.

The Police spokesman listed the suspects as; Isah Baffa Rabo, 30, from Maibindiga Village, Lere LGA, implicated in kidnappings for ransom in Zango Kataf LGA and Kachia LGA of the State; Ja’afaru Sale, 30, from Durumi Village, Lere LGA, and Umar Musa, 24, from Durumi Village, Lere LGA of the State.

The suspects confessed to being part of a kidnapping syndicate in Lere LGA and admitted to stealing two cattle, which they sold to Idris Abubakar, 47, from Dokan Lere, who was also arrested.

According to the statement, recovered items include a locally made single-barrel gun, a cutlass, and three mobile phones, while the case has been transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID) for further investigation.
