Bauchi Police Command Arrests 4-Man Serial Killers (Read)

The Bauchi State Police Command has arrested a four man gang of serial killers.

The Commissioner of Police, Bauchi State Command, Garba Umar, disclosed this while briefing journalists at the police headquarters in Bauchi.

Umar said the gang, was responsible for several extrajudicial killings across the state, including the killing of two people about three weeks ago.

According to the police chief, relying on intelligence, the police arrested four suspected members of the syndicate.

He said he recently held a meeting with the Myetti Allah group which denied knowledge of the syndicate responsible for the killings of kidnappers and cattle rustlers.

“During my last stakeholders’ meeting with various Myetti Allah groups in the state, I enjoined them to disclose the identities of the groups allegedly behind a series of extrajudicial killings of suspected kidnappers and cattle rustlers in the state and they vehemently denied knowledge of such syndicates”, he explained.

“The groups usually take the law into their own hands, go to villages in their hundreds and abduct their victims to unknown destinations and kill them extrajudicially on mere allegations.

“When the situation continued unabated, the command set up a special team with the sole mandate to unravel the syndicate behind these dastardly acts with a view to bringing them to justice.
