Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Katsina State Police Command has arrested no fewer than eight suspects in connection with kidnapping, armed robbery, criminal conspiracy, culpable homicide and other related crimes in the state.<\/p>\n

The command\u2019s spokesman, Abubakar Sadiq, who paraded the suspects before the Command Headquarters in Katsina, noted that the Command arrested 16-year-old Nuhu Haruna of Fenza village, in the Dutsinma Local Government Area in connection with a suspected case of culpable homicide.<\/p>\n

Haruna was arrested on October 21, 2024, at about 1300hrs, following a misunderstanding with 40-year-old Rabi Haruna of the same address, who happened to be his stepmother.<\/p>\n

According to him, the suspect allegedly used a stick and hit the victim on her stomach, which eventually led to her death, adding that the suspect had during the investigation, confessed to the commission of the offence.<\/p>\n

The Command has also arrested one Abubakar Nasiru, alias Haro, in connection with a suspected case of criminal conspiracy and kidnapping.<\/p>\n

The Command said the suspect, who was earlier convicted in a case of rape, was fingered in an ongoing investigation about a case of criminal conspiracy and kidnapping, hence his re-arrest.<\/p>\n

In the course of an investigation, the suspect confessed to the commission of the offence and further confessed to having received the sum of two million naira as his own share of the proceeds.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe fact of the case is that sometime in the year 2023, the suspect criminally conspired with other suspects now at large and attacked Unguwar Maza village, Kafur LGA, and kidnapped three (3) victims. The sum of thirteen million naira was paid as ransom to secure the release of the victims.<\/p>\n

\u201cDuring the investigation, the suspect confessed to the commission of the offence and further confessed to having received two (2) million naira as his share of the proceeds.<\/p>\n

\u201cEfforts have been sustained to ensure the arrest of the fleeing suspects as the investigation proceeds,\u201d the police noted.<\/p>\n
