After the arrest and parade of notorious armed gang terrorizing Benue, Taraba and neighbouring States, the Nigeria Police Force (NPF) has yet again paraded fifty six vicious bandits and criminal militias.
TheNewsGuru reports the fifty six vicious bandits and criminal militias, according to the Police, are responsible for several killings of innocent people, kidnappings and armed robbery in Birnin Gwari area of Kaduna state, to other villages and towns in Zamfara State.
Following the killing of over 40 persons by suspected bandits at Gwaska in Birnin-Gwari Local Government Area of Kaduna State, last weekend, President Muhammadu Buhari approved a new military battalion, a new Police Area Command and two additional Div Police HQs for the Birnin-Gwari area.
The Kaduna State Police commissioner, Austin Iwar, said the police deployed over 150 personnel to the area as directed by the Inspector General of Police, Ibrahim Idris, on Sunday.
With the enhancement of security, the Police arrested and paraded vicious and notorious suspects responsible for selling and supply of AK47 rifles and other firearms and ammunition to armed bandits, militias and criminal herdsmen/farmers in Benue, Taraba, and neighbouring states.
TheNewsGuru reports the major breakthrough in the arrest of the notorious gang of dealers in prohibited firearms and ammunition in Benue and Taraba states was made known on Tuesday when the suspects were paraded at the Benue State Police Command Headquarters.
However, the fifty six vicious bandits and criminal militias arrested were paraded on Thursday at the divisional police headquarters in Katari, Kaduna state.
