The rescue of the victims was sequel to the  report received by the Police on the abduction of the victims, where a search and rescue operation was carried out and the victims were successfully rescued unhurt. 


In the course of debriefing, the victims informed the Police that, On 14th October, 2022, Bandits in their large number invaded  Kuraje village in Gusau LGA and abducted four of them to MUNHAYE forest in Tsafe LGA where they spent 15 days in captivity. The victims were taken to Police Clinic for medical check and later reunited with their families. 


The Commissioner of Police while reassuring the public on the command's commitment to restoring peace and security in the state, congratulates the victims for regaining their freedom and urges all and sundry to be security conscious and report suspicious  movement to the Police or any security Agency for prompt action.
