Operatives of the Yobe State Police Command have rescued a two-year-old boy kidnapped in Potiskum and arrested a 24-year-old suspect linked to the crime.
SP Dungus Abdulkarim, Public Relations Officer of the Command made this known on Thursday in Damaturu.
He said the toddler was abducted on July 31, with his father, Mohammed Ishayaku, receiving a ransom demand of N2 million from his captors.
Abdulkarim added that police investigations led to the arrest of Abdullahi Aliyu of Kakuri, Kaduna, after he was found to be involved in similar offences in other states.
The Commissioner of Police in Yobe, CP Emmanuel Ado, commended the operatives for the swift rescue and restated the command’s resolve to tackle criminal activities across the state.
Ado urged parents to be vigilant and promptly report suspicious activities or incidents to the nearest police station.
According to him, the command remains committed to safeguarding the lives and properties of residents.
