The Kano State Police Command has rescued the Sarkin Noman Kano, Alhaji Yusif Nadabo, after security operatives foiled a kidnapping attempt in Garun Mallam Local Government Area of the state.
The incident occurred at about 11:30 p.m. on Saturday, August 29, when suspected bandits invaded Garun Mallam town and reportedly fired several shots into the air, throwing residents into panic.
During the attack, the gunmen abducted Nadabo, a traditional title holder in the area, while three residents sustained gunshot injuries.
The injured victims were identified as Yusif Nasiru, 20; Salisu Garba, 20; and Ibrahim Hassan, 20, all residents of Garun Mallam town.
According to the Kano State Police Command, a distress call prompted the immediate deployment of tactical teams, patrol officers and reinforcements from nearby police divisions.
The operatives, supported by local residents, vigilante members and the Neighbourhood Watch Corps, pursued the fleeing kidnappers.
The pressure from the security teams reportedly forced the suspects to abandon their captive and flee into the surrounding area.
Police said Alhaji Nadabo was successfully rescued without injuries.
