Upon scouring the area, the troops found two male kidnapped victims, identified as Muntaka Abubakar and Nwabueze John. Also discovered were the corpses of two unidentified female victims who had been killed by the bandits. 

The corpses were evacuated while the rescued victims were reunited with their families, after first aid was administered on one of them who was carrying an injury. 

Another kidnapped victim, 85-year-old Tabawa Laraba, was rescued by the troops in Kuzo general area. She was examined and debriefed before being reunited with her family.

The troops extended fighting patrols to Abrom, Gabachuwa and Kujeni forest areas spanning  Kajuru, Chikun and Kachia LGAs.

The Kaduna State Government thanked and commended the troops for the successful operations and rescue of the victims, while sending heartfelt condolences to the families of the victims executed by the bandits.
