EDO POLICE RESCUE ABDUCTED WOMAN AFTER AGGRESSIVE BUSH COMBING OPERATION IN IGBANKE


The Edo State Police Command wishes to inform the general public that operatives of the Command, in collaboration with local security outfits, successfully rescued a kidnapped victim following a swift and aggressive bush combing operation in Igbanke.


On 16th May, 2026, at about 0945hrs, one Chinedu George ‘m’, aged 18years, reported that he was abducted with his mother, Mrs. Vivian George, aged 57 years, by suspected kidnappers while on their way to their farm at Ottah Community, Igbanke, but he managed to escape. 


Upon receipt of the report, operatives of the Division immediately mobilized detectives alongside members of the Edo State Security Corps (ESSC), and local hunters into the forest on a rescue operation. 


During the operation, the security team encountered the suspected kidnappers and engaged them in a gun duel. Overwhelmed by the superior firepower and pressure mounted by the operatives, the suspects fled into the forest with gunshot injuries and abandoned the victim.


The victim was successfully rescued unhurt and has since been reunited with her family.
