Security forces in Kano have launched a manhunt for suspected armed abductors following the abduction of four persons in Karaye Local Government Area of the state.
Security sources told Akelicious that the incident occurred at about 1:15 a.m. on Tuesday when about eight hoodlums, armed with AK-47 rifles, invaded Adama village in Karaye LGA.
The source said the suspects abducted four members of the Alhaji Boyi Adama family, identified as Aliyu Bello, Sani Bello, Razika Aliyu Bello and Shu’aibu Salisu.
“Upon receipt of the report from a good Samaritan, Joint Task Force teams were swiftly deployed to the scene on a rescue mission,” the source said.
According to the source, the suspects fled the area before the arrival of security operatives.
An empty 7.62mm ammunition shell was recovered at the scene, while efforts were ongoing to rescue the victims unhurt and track down the perpetrators.
The authorities assured residents that intensified operations were underway to apprehend those responsible and restore calm to the area.
Akelicious report that bandits have intensified attacks in Kano state especially around communities bordering Kano and Kastina state.
