Chadian troops have rescued 85 Nigerians
kidnapped last week by the Islamist terror group
Boko Haram, security and human rights sources
in Nigeria said Saturday.
Dozens of Boko Haram insurgents stormed the
Doron Baga fishing and farming village on the
shores of Lake Chad late Sunday through Monday
and took away 97 young men and boys plus
several women, residents said. The raiders killed
28 residents and burned scores of homes,
according to residents.
The hostages were loaded onto motorboats and
ferried into neighboring Chad, with residents
saying they feared the hostages would be
forcefully conscripted as foot soldiers.
Chadian security officials reported intercepting a
convoy of buses carrying 85 Nigerians" believed
to have been kidnapped by Boko Haram terrorists
from Baga," a Nigerian security source said.
"The convoy being led by six Boko Haram
gunmen was stopped on the Chadian part of the
border along Lake Chad for routine checks and
the huge number in the convoy raised suspicion,"
said the source, who asked not to be named
because he was not authorized to speak on the
issue.
An official of the National Human Rights
Commission (NHRC) in Maiduguri confirmed the
rescue of the 63 male and 22 female hostages.
The source, who asked that his name not be
used, said more than 30 hostages were still being
held by Boko Haram. He said their captors sped
off with them in motorboats when they spotted
the convoy being questioned by Chadian soldiers.
Boko Haram has been waging a five-year armed
insurgency to create an Islamic state in northern
Nigeria. The group has carried out series of
abductions, including the April kidnapping of more
than 200 schoolgirls from a boarding school in
the town of Chibok.
Boko Haram uses its hostages as conscripts and
sex slaves, according to authorities. They say
Boko Haram has killed more than 12,000 people
and displaced more than half a million residents
