The source said the Kano command’s tactical team based on reliable intelligence busted a gang of five bandits in Makarfi bushes where they were sharing the ransom.

“One Hamisu Tukur, is currently in custody with gunshot injuries, while Bature was killed,” the source said.

Hajiya Hauwa’u Adamu was kidnapped on June 28, 2024, from her residence in Kahutu village in Katsina.

Her kidnappers said to be suspected bandits stormed the village barefoot and operated for a few minutes. Upon their arrival in the village, the bandits went straight to the residence of the victim and picked only her, ignoring other people they met in the house.
