The Katsina State Police Command, led by CP Aliyu Abubakar Musa, thwarted an imminent attack on Sabuwa town, Sabuwa LGA.
Armed with AK-47 rifles and ominous intentions, suspected bandits were swiftly neutralized in a fierce exchange.
Promptly responding to intelligence, the Sabuwa Divisional Headquarters deployed a formidable team, including operatives from Operation Sharan Daji and the Katsina State Community Watch Corps.
The clash, reminiscent of a wild west showdown, saw the assailants outmatched and their plans foiled.
While the battle claimed one injury, with Murtala Sabi’u bravely facing a gunshot wound now under medical care, the recovery of a walkie-talkie and a military-grade hand grenade underscores the gravity of the situation averted.
CP Aliyu Abubakar Musa commended the swift action of his team and urged the public’s vigilance, emphasizing the need to report any suspicious individuals, especially those bearing gunshot wounds.
This resolute stance against criminal elements reaffirms the commitment of the Katsina State Police Command to safeguarding lives and property in the region.
