Eyewitnesses told that the bandits broke into the neighborhood around 12:30 in the morning and opened fire randomly to terrorize the locals and stop them from resisting.
DSP Abubakar Sadiq, the public relations officer for Katsina State Police, answered via SMS that he “can’t talk now,” therefore attempts to get confirmation of the occurrence were futile.
An inquiry and potential rescue attempt for the kidnapped individuals are anticipated to be initiated by security officials.
