Read Time:1 Minute, 16 Second

Police officers from the FCT Command, who are linked to the Rubochi Division Police Headquarters and the Anti-Kidnapping Unit, successfully and bravely freed 14 abducted victims on Wednesday from Ukya village, which is close to the border with Nasarawa state.

Based on reliable information, the joint police squad moved quickly to raid a kidnapper’s hideout in Ukya village. The crooks started shooting at the police officers as soon as they arrived, sparking a heated gunfight.

One of the kidnappers was eliminated during the gunfight, and the other criminals, who were all wounded to varying degrees, fled into the neighboring woodland.

Thankfully, the captives were freed without incident, and they have since happily reconnected with their families.

Haruna G. Garba, the Federal Capital Territory’s Commissioner of Police, reaffirmed his steadfast commitment to eliminating criminality in all of its forms and making sure that everyone lives in peace.

He praised the police officers participating in the operation for their quick thinking and bravery.

Additionally, CP Garba advised locals to maintain their vigilance and report any suspicious activity right away. The public is advised to use the emergency contact numbers, 08032003913, 08061581938, 07057337653, and 08028940883, as he stressed the significance of making prompt distress calls.

Additionally, 09022222352 is the number to reach the Public Complaint Bureau (PCB).

The Commissioner of Police conveyed appreciation for the cooperative efforts of the security forces in upholding the safety and security of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) in a statement released by Police Public Relations Officer SP Josephine Adeh.
