How Mastermind Of Jos, Zaria Bombings Was Arrested - Military by Mancity26(m): 6:11pm On Jul 08, 2015 |
The Nigerian military has
explained how the suspected
mastermind of the Jos and
Zaria bombings was arrested.
The defence headquarters had
earlier tweeted that the
unnamed suspect was taken
into custody in Gombe after
organising the two attacks
that killed 70 people between
Sunday and Tuesday.
The spokesperson for the
Army, Sani Usman, has given
further details on the arrest:
“Please recall that on Sunday
5th July 2015, suspected Boko
Haram terrorists carried out
coordinated bomb and gun
attacks on worshippers at Ýan
Taya mosque, Dillimi Street, off
Bauchi Road, Jos where the
holy month of Ramadan tafsir
was holding, and Shagalinku
Restaurant, along Bauchi Road,
Jos, Plateau State which led to
death of over 48 persons,
injuring several other persons
and destruction of property.
“Similarly, the terrorists carried
out another bomb attack on
hapless workers undergoing
verification exercise at Sabon
Gari Local Government
Secretariat, Zaria Kaduna State
which resulted in the death of
over 25 people including a
two-year-old child and
destruction of property.
“Consequently, security
cordon was established in the
general areas especially along
Bauchi, Gombe and the North
Eastern part of the country by
troops of 3 Division and
Special Task Force, as well as
the Department of State
Services. This culminated in the
successful arrest of the
mastermind of the heinous
terrorist acts and two of his
accomplices at a checkpoint in
Dadin Kowa, Gombe State. The
terrorist kingpin and his
colleagues who disguised in a trailer while
trying to evade checks were fished out by
troops of Nigerian Army.
“The arrested terrorists are currently
being processed for further action and
would soon face the full wrath of the law.
“The general public are hereby please
requested to be more vigilant, security
conscious and report any suspicious
persons, movements, and facilities to the
security agencies.” |
