“The only grown up woman among those kidnapped was said to be a Policewoman.

“She heard when they were attempting to break into her house, so she ran out, not knowing that they (bandits) were many outside.

“So, those waiting outside her house just picked her. Her daughter, putting on only a small wrapper around her chest, who also followed her mother was equally taken.

“The kidnappers did not stop there, they also went inside her house to ransack the house, but her other children, a boy and another girl had ran into hiding,” Mathew narrated.

Meanwhile, the Kaduna Police Command’s Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), ASP Muhammad Jalige, said they are yet to get details of the incident from the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) of the area.
