Recent Abductions in Kagarko, Kaduna.

In a distressing turn of events, a mother and her four daughters have been abducted from their home in Kurmin-Uwa, near the Janjala community, located in the Kagarko Local Government Area of Kaduna State. This incident follows closely on the heels of another abduction involving seven family members and three other residents in Unguwar Sabon-Titi, Katari.

Details of the Incident/

The latest abduction occurred around 10:23 PM on a Friday, as confirmed by Ibrahim Shehu, a resident of Kagarko town. According to Mr. Shehu, the bandits arrived with a clear target, swiftly executing their plan and abducting seven individuals from the household.

Community and Security Response.

A concerned community leader, who wishes to remain anonymous, reported the invasion to security operatives immediately upon receiving a distress call. The leader disclosed, "After I received a distress call that bandits had invaded Kurmin-Uwa village, I quickly alerted the security operatives, but I don’t know if they later responded."

Despite these efforts, no contact has been established with the abductors, raising serious concerns about the persistent threat posed by bandits in the area.

Ongoing Security Challenges.

A security source, engaged in the search for previous abductees from Katari, mentioned that they were unaware of the latest incident. "We have been in the forest since Tuesday, trying to locate the bandits' hideout around Kachia in order to rescue those who were abducted in Katari on Wednesday, but I will find out," the source stated.

Lack of Official Response.

Efforts to obtain an official comment from the Kaduna State Police were unsuccessful. DSP Hassan Mansur, the spokesman for the police command, did not respond to calls or messages regarding the incident.

These repeated abductions highlight the urgent need for improved security measures and swift action to protect the residents of Kagarko and surrounding areas. The community remains hopeful for a swift resolution and the safe return of the abducted individuals.
