He said the bandits kidnapped the policeman’s wife, his daughters as well as four others.
He further disclosed that the local security agents, Kaduna State Vigilance Service (KadVS), which responded to calls by the victims’ relatives could not do anything positive as bandits had disappeared with their victims.
He further added that as the local security arrived and engaged the bandits in a gun duel, the bandits ran away with the victims.
