Bandits attacked the Zone 5 segment of the Kubwa Extension 2 Relocation Estate along Arab Road in the Federal Capital Territory on Sunday night, kidnapping a woman and her three children, including a six-month-old baby. The PUNCH exclusively reports that the gunmen struck between 8pm and 9pm on Sunday, December 10, shooting indiscriminately and causing pandemonium in the area. Speaking to our correspondent over the development, a resident who preferred not to be named revealed that kidnapping has become a usual occurrence in the area every December. When contacted by our correspondent, the FCT Police Public Relations Officer, SP Josephine Adeh, promised to find out about the development and revert. Meanwhile, the FCT CP, Haruna Garba, did not respond to phone calls by our correspondent on Monday.
