The FCT Police Command has made a landmark arrest that has put an end to the reign of terror by a notorious gang leader, Abubakar Idris aka Nishi and his accomplices, Buhari Saidu and Musa Ahmadu Suleiman, responsible for the gruesome murder of Ibrahim Danfulani.
The incident, which took place on Wednesday, 27 November, 2024, was a direct result of Nishi’s frustration over Ibrahim’s intentions to marry a woman he, Nishi, had heavily invested in financially.
Investigation revealed that the trio, armed with knives, brutally attacked Ibrahim Danfulani, resulting in his untimely death.
But that’s not all, the gang also stole 18 cows belonging to the victim as compensation for Nishi’s perceived losses.
In a dramatic turn of events, Abubakar Idris, who had fled the scene of the crime, was trailed and arrested in Nasarawa State. He was caught while planning on recruiting new gang members to execute his sinister plot to return and kill the woman.
The swift and coordinated efforts of the FCT Police Command, in collaboration with residents of the Agaita community in Karu, led to the successful arrest of all suspects, who are now in police custody and will face prosecution to ensure justice is served.
“The FCT Police Command remains steadfast in its commitment to protecting lives and property and encourages residents to report any suspicious activities or criminal elements to the nearest police station,” SP Josephine Adeh, stated on Monday, 20 January, 2025.
