The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police Command has arrested three kidnappers who appeared in a viral video openly brandishing AK-47 rifles, ammunition, and walkie-talkies while dressed in military camouflage.

The kidnappers are identified as Umar Babangida (25), Adamu Yeti (22), and Yahaya Idris (24), are all residents of Rijana, Kaduna State.

Confirming the development to journalists, the Commissioner of Police, FCT Command, CP Ahmed Sanusi, disclosed that he immediately ordered a forensic analysis to determine the origin of the footage and directed a manhunt for the suspects as soon as the video surfaced.

According to the Commissioner, digital forensic tracking and actionable intelligence led operatives to the suspects’ hideout.

Acting on the intelligence, police operatives carried out a coordinated dawn raid at Runji Village in Zuba on May 25 at about 3:22 a.m., leading to the successful arrest of the suspects.
