THE Nigeria Police Force Intelligence Response Team (IRT) has arrested two suspects in connection with the abduction of a Catholic Priest in Kagarko LGA of Kaduna State.

The suspects, Abubakar Usman, 21 and Salisu Abdullahi, 28, were arrested following intense intelligence-led operations to unravel, arrest and bring to book, the criminal gang responsible for a series of related high-profile kidnap operations in Kaduna State.

 

Spokesperson, CP Frank Mba, in a statement today, said investigations revealed how the arrested principal suspects masterminded and led other gang members to carry out the dastardly act.

 

According to him, “One GPMG and three AK47 rifles were recovered from the suspects while effort is still ongoing to arrest other members of the gang.”

 

Similarly, CP Mba said, “The Police have arrested three ex-convicts, Abel Nanfa, 23, Nankum Wazhi, 32 and Jonah Patrick, 25 years respectively, in Plateau State for their involvement in armed robbery, kidnapping and car theft within the Jos metropolis”.
