Operatives of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) have foiled a kidnap attack in Guto village, Bwari Area Council of the city.

The Command in a statement on Sunday said it rescued two teenagers: Mart Ojadi, 15, and Evelyn Chinaza, 12, forcefully taken to an unknown location.

The statement read partly: “Displaying remarkable bravery, the police, in synergy with DSS hunters, trailed and advanced on the assailant, tactically ambushing them at Gauraka Forest, Niger State, bordering FCT.

 

“This led to an intense gun duel as the kidnappers were overwhelmed by the operatives, forcing them to scamper to safety through the nearby bushes with varying degrees of bullet injuries, and the two kidnapped victims were rescued unhurt.

“While the victims have since been reunited with their family, the commissioner of police, FCT, CP Benneth C. Igweh reaffirms the command’s unflinching commitment to maintaining peace and security in the nation’s capital.

“He also urges the residents to be vigilant and take advantage of the police emergency lines in reporting suspicious activities.”
