Troops of Operation Enduring Peace have arrested a group of suspected criminals linked to a wave of mysterious “silent killings” that have unsettled communities across Plateau State.
Security sources disclosed that the breakthrough followed intensified intelligence-led operations and coordinated stop-and-search exercises in key flashpoints within Jos metropolis and surrounding areas.
The suspects, believed to be behind a string of covert attacks and targeted killings, reportedly operated under the cover of darkness, striking in isolated locations and leaving behind bodies that heightened fear and tension among residents.
According to findings, the suspects were intercepted at strategic نقاط during the operations, with troops recovering weapons and other incriminating items suspected to have been used in the deadly missions.
The arrests come amid growing concern over sporadic killings and the discovery of corpses in remote areas—incidents that had triggered panic and uncertainty across affected communities.
Authorities confirmed that the suspects are currently in custody and undergoing interrogation as security agencies work to uncover their network, possible sponsors, and accomplices.
Reaffirming their resolve, the command vowed to sustain aggressive operations aimed at dismantling criminal elements and restoring lasting peace in the state.
Residents have been urged to remain calm and support ongoing efforts by providing timely and credible information to security agencies, as the crackdown on violent networks intensifies.
