Africa-Press<\/a> – Nigeria<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>Bandits on a revenge mission yesterday afternoon reportedly killed 11 villagers and injured others when they attacked Tsatskiya community in Safana local government area of Katsina State.<\/p>\n

The reprisal attack by the notorious bandits was to avenge the death of one of their informant from Hakon Kartakawa village who was killed by an angry mob last week, a source said.<\/p>\n

Scores of villagers from Tsatskiya and other neighbouring villages in Safana LGA were reported to have escaped to Dutsima town to seek refuge following the attack.<\/p>\n

A source told DAILY POST that the suspected bandits reportedly stormed the community around 12noon on Saturday, shooting sporadically into the air and eventually killing 11 persons.<\/p>\n

Another source told DAILY POST that it has become a risky venture to expose informants of the notorious bandits for fear of reprisal attack.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnytime an informant is either exposed, arrested or killed the bandits always try to rescue them or avenge them by killing more people.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, while confirming the attack, the spokesman Katsina Police, Gambo Isa, reportedly said only three people were killed in the reprisal attack.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
