Operatives of the Nigeria Police Force have arrested one Bello Mohammed, 28, of Zamfara State, in Kaduna, who is a member of the bandit gang that kidnapped a lawyer’s family in Bwari and murdered Nabeeha, one of five daughters

In a statement, yesterday, in Abuja, Force Public Relations Officer, Muyiwa Adejobi said: “The Divisional Police Officer, Tafa Division, acting on intelligence, raided one hotel in Tafa Area, Kaduna, where he arrested Bello, with N2.25 million, suspected to be proceeds of ransoms collected from kidnapped victims within the area.

“The suspect, during interrogation, confessed to be part of the gang that kidnapped the family members of one Ariyo in Bwari, FCT, on 2 January 2024, and killed some kidnapped victims, including Nabeeha, daughter of the legal practitioner, on 13 January 2024, in a kidnappers camp, in Kaduna State.

“The suspect, in a dramatic situation, offered N1 million to induce the DPO, who rejected the offer and carried out his duty diligently.

“The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Kayode Egbetokun has ordered that the suspect, who also confessed to the involvement of the already five neutralized bandits in Kaduna by the IRT, headed by one Mai Gemu (aka Godara), whose deadly camp has also been destroyed, be handed over to the DFI-IRT in Abuja for discreet investigations into the matter and arrest of all other culprits responsible for the dastardly act.

“The suspect is currently helping the police in their investigations.

“While commending the DPO Tafa, Superintendent  Idris Ibrahim, for the commitment and professionalism displayed in the case, he further assured that the Police would leave no stone unturned in decimating criminally minded individuals and bequeathing to Nigerians a more secure society for all and sundry in our dear country, Nigeria”.
