One police inspector, who also sustained gunshot injury, is currently being treated in an unnamed\u00a0 hospital.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Command wishes to update the general public of the unfortunate kidnap of some students who were on their way to Babcock University for Annual GYC Africa Conference on 16\/04\/2025 at a location bordering Edo and Ondo States,” the statement read.<\/p>\n
\u201cOn receipt of this information, the Commissioner of Police, Monday Agbonika, immediately deployed operatives of the Ohosu Division, IRT, tactical teams alongside vigilantes and hunters into the bushes for possible rescue of the victims and arrest of suspects.<\/p>\n
\u201cDuring the operation, operatives engaged in a gun duel with these kidnappers. In the process, one of the kidnappers was neutralised, while others escaped with bullet wounds.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe operatives were cautious to avoid collateral damages as the kidnappers used the victims as human shields. Unfortunately, an Inspector of Police sustained a gunshot injury and is currently responding to treatment.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis rescue effort eventually paid off as the ten (10) kidnapped students comprising eight (8) male and (2) females were released due to intense pressure mounted on them.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
