The Bauchi State Police thwarted a potential kidnapping after arresting three suspects for alleged conspiracy, threats, and attempted abduction.
The Daily Reality gathered that the investigation commenced on March 7 when Yahaya Adamu reported a threat to the Anti-Kidnapping Unit.
An anonymous caller demanded 5 million Naira, threatening violence against him or his family if he refused.
According to the Bauchi State Police Command, the suspects upped the ante by sending their POS details and mentioning names of Adamu’s family members, further pressuring him to comply.
Acting swiftly, Bauchi Police Commissioner Auwal Musa directed the CID to discreetly investigate.
Using modern technology, they apprehended Haro Adamu (35), Aliyu Saidu (40), and Musa Umaru (35) in Jigawa and Plateau States.
Police say the suspects confessed during questioning and will face prosecution in court.
