The Police Special Tactical Squad led by DCP Kolo Yusuf has arrested three members of the armed bandits, involved in the kidnap of 126 students of the Bethel Baptist Secondary School, Maraban Damishi in Kaduna State on July 5th, 2021.
This was made known by the Commissioner of Police in charge of Force Public Relations, CP Frank Mba while parading the three suspected bandits, all dressed in military uniforms which they use for their criminal operations, gave their names as Isiaka Lawal, Muazu Abubakar, and Adamu Bello.
Mba said the trio are part of the larger gang that carried out the horrible act of kidnapping young innocent school children and subjecting them to harrowing experiences.
“We just want Nigerians to know that no crime against innocent citizens, will be allowed to rest until we get the perpetrators, no matter how long it takes”, he said.
One of the bandits, 27-year-old Muazu Abubakar, revealed that their gang of 25 attacked the school and abducted 126 students.
He said, “We kidnapped the 126 students because we needed money. I was paid #100,000 from the kidnapping. The other two persons you are seeing with me in army Camouflage uniform are members of our gang”.
