The police public relations officer DSP Gambo Isah said the suspects who were arrested with Hijab and Niqab have confessed to a planned kidnap of the boy, a son to one Alhaji Rabi’u Gide, Katsina state Assistant Accountant General.
He said, “On 04/04/2018 at about 18:00hrs, based on a tip off, the Divisional Police Officer, GRA Division Katsina, CSP Garba Isah, succeeded in busting a notorious syndicate of kidnappers terrorizing Katsina state and its environs.
“The DPO received a distress call of unusual movement of two men with one among them wearing Hijab and Niqab covering his body and face like a woman very close to INEC State Headquarters Office, GRA, Katsina. The DPO swiftly swung into action and led a Surveillance team to the area, where they were arrested.”
“As soon as investigation is concluded they shall be charge to court,” he added.
