 6 Worshippers Abducted During Taraweeh Prayers In Kaduna


Six Muslim worshippers have been abducted by suspected bandits during Taraweeh prayers in Azara community, Kachia Local Government Area of Kaduna State.


The incident occurred on Thursday night while residents were observing the voluntary Ramadan prayers inside a mosque.


According to a resident, Tanimu Ibrahim, the assailants stormed the community, firing sporadically into the air before abducting six adults, four men and two women.


Ibrahim disclosed that the attackers also raided another residence while fleeing the area and abducted two additional persons. 


However, the two victims reportedly escaped while being taken into the bush.


“Two other victims were abducted, but as God would have it, they narrowly escaped on their way into the forest,” he said.


A community leader, who spoke on condition of anonymity, confirmed the abduction and identified the victims as Saifullahi Harisu, Yakubu Yunusa, Abba Minkailu, Yusha’u Sadiku, Maryam Abdullahi and Aisha Yakubu.


The leader further revealed that the kidnappers made contact on Friday morning, demanding a ransom of N30 million for the release of the victims.


“Contact was established around 11 a.m. on Friday when the bandits’ leader called and demanded N30 million before immediately switching off the phone,” he said.


A police source in the area confirmed the incident but declined to provide further details, directing inquiries to the Kaduna State Police Command.
