This was contained in a statement by Brigadier General Onyema Nwachukwu, Director Army Public Relations<\/p>\n

According to the statement, the troops while acting on actionable Intelligence laid in wait for the bandits and unleashed fire on them.<\/p>\n

The troops killed one, while others fled with gunshot wounds leaving traces of blood, just as the roops recovered one AK-47 rifle, 14 live rounds of 7.62 mm ammunition, a mobile phone and a fetish amulet from the bandit, adding that the troops are still exploiting the general area, on the trail of the fleeing bandits .<\/p>\n

\u201cIn another operation the same day, troops responding to a report by a motorist, of a stolen Toyota Corolla car with registration number ABJ 343 KL, have nabbed a gang of 3 Carjackers along the Bauchi \u2013 Jos Highway.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn receipt of the report, the vigilant troops quickly mounted a snap check point on the highway and successfully intercepted the criminals,\u201d it said.<\/p>\n

It said while attempting to escape upon sighting the troops, the criminal scratched the stolen vehicle, just as the troops swiftly apprehended the criminals and have since handed the suspects and the stolen vehicle over to the Nigeri Police Force for further action.<\/p>\n
