Members of a kidnap syndicate, who allegedly killed three of their victims after collecting N7.5m ransom from their family members have been arrested by operatives of the Intelligence Response Team.

DCP Frank Mba, the Force Public Relations Officer, disclosed this in Abuja on Monday while parading 26 suspects arrested for kidnapping, armed robbery, unlawful possession of firearms and other sundry offences.

He mentioned that the group abducted one Dr Audu Benedict, his son and a friend of the family, who were on their way to Abuja.

According to the Punch, the suspects were said to have contacted the families of their victims, who subsequently paid N7m to secure their release while in captivity.

“Before the ransom was paid, the suspects forced Benedict to raise a cheque of N500,000, which was successfully cashed,” Mba stated.

He, however, regretted that the syndicate went ahead to kill their victims, notwithstanding the ransom.

He stated, “Among the suspects, we have a kidnap syndicate that specialises in terrorising people of the North-Central zone.

“A ransom of N7m was paid by the family of Dr Audu Benedict. While in captivity, the doctor also raised a cheque of N500,000, bringing the total to N7.5m.
