Bandits Kills Abducted Residents In Kaduna After Ransom
Bandits have reportedly killed six residents of Kutaho Village in Kagarko Local Government Area of Kaduna State months after abducting them during an attack on the community.
The incident happened despite efforts by residents to raise and pay ransom for their release.
The victims were identified as Friday Agama, Kunama Dogo, Monday Tanko, Lami Williams and two others known as Pawpaw’s brother and Catchiest.
Reports also said four other abductees regained their freedom, with two receiving medical treatment while the remaining survivors were returning home.
Residents said families sold belongings and contributed money in the hope of securing the release of all the captives.
The deaths have deepened fears over the continued attacks by bandits across Southern Kaduna and nearby communities.
Security agencies had not officially confirmed the incident at the time of filing the report.
Community leaders have appealed to the Federal Government to improve security, rescue victims still in captivity and bring those behind the killings to justice.
