No fewer than three operatives of the Special Anti Robbery Squad (SARS) were shot dead by Boko Haram fighters in Borno state on Monday.
They were killed in an exchange of gunfire between security operatives and the insurgents at Kundori village in Konduga local government area of Borno.
While mourning them, Muhammed Ibrahim, commander of SARS in Borno, described the deceased officers as “great fighters who have made the squad and the Nigeria police command proud in previous encounters”.
