Security operatives have brought an end to the reign of terror unleashed by a notorious kidnapper who plagued communities across Nigeria’s North West region.
The criminal, identified as Mallam Kura, was apprehended during a daring operation by a combined team of local vigilantes and security forces. Known for masterminding high-profile abductions and extorting millions in ransom, Kura had evaded capture for years.
A security source disclosed that Kura’s capture followed weeks of intelligence gathering and collaboration with local informants. “This arrest is a significant breakthrough in our fight against banditry and kidnapping,” the source added.
Residents of affected communities have expressed relief, celebrating the arrest as a victory for justice. Meanwhile, authorities have assured the public of continued efforts to dismantle criminal networks in the region.
This milestone operation is a testament to the resilience of security forces and community efforts to restore peace to the troubled North West.
