Reports indicate that the suspects had abducted an elderly man identified as Alhaji Gambo.

Intelligence gathered that the suspected kidnappers, identified as Sani and Musa, had instructed the family of their victim to bring the ransom to a location.

The family of the victim (Alhaji Gambo) informed vigilantes in the area who stormed the location and ambushed the kidnappers.

Sources say security personnel gunned down the heavily armed kidnappers while they were trying to pick the money and consequently reduced the abductee.
