Kebbi Police Bust Kidnap Plot, Arrest Family Friend and Three Others Over N30m Ransom Threat — 1 of 3
1 / 3

Police in Kebbi have arrested four suspects in a foiled kidnap plot targeting a resident of Jega. The suspects had demanded a N30 million ransom and made anonymous calls after a family friend supplied the victim’s phone number and personal details. Officers tracked down and arrested Muhammad Shafiu (21), Mansur Ibrahim (21), Aliyu Umar (25) and Muhammad Suleiman (23) in Maiyama LGA before the crime could be carried out. The Commissioner of Police has ordered a full investigation and warned that those involved in kidnapping or extortion will face prosecution. Residents are urged to stay vigilant and report any suspicious calls or activities to the nearest station or police hotlines. All information will be handled confidentially.

It's striking that a family friend would casually hand over a person's phone number and personal details without any oversight.

Folks keep saying ransom demands show desperation, but maybe increased surveillance allows these plots to be uncovered more quickly these days.
