Just In: 1 killed as Police, terrorists engage in gun duel in Kaduna

The Police Command in Kaduna State neutralized a terrorist and recovered one AK-47 rifle with two rounds of live 7.62x39mm ammunition.

 

 

 

The incident happened March 13 when operatives of the Command attached to Operation WHIRL Punch (OPSWP) acted on a received credible intelligence indicating that on the same date at about 0645hrs, terrorists on a nefarious mission had blocked Galadimawa – Tumburku road of Giwa Local Government Area.

 

 

 

The Police operatives, led by DPO Kidandan, swiftly mobilized to the scene, engaged the terrorists in a gun duel, and countered their heinous raid which forced them to scamper in disarray into a nearby bush with possible varying gunshot wounds.

 

 

 

The state Commissioner of Police (CP), Yekini Ayoku, however, commended the effort of the operatives.

 

 

 

The CP assured members of the public that the Command shall continue to be resilient in its determination to ensure that criminal elements are denied the space to carry out their villainous activities. CONTINUE READING……………………………………….
