According to the Police Public Relations Officer, Mohammed Jalinge, six-year-old Muhammed Kabiru’s abduction was masterminded by his neighbour..
He said his father was contacted and asked to pay the sum of thirty million Naira, to secure his release.
But the negotiating party agreed on the sum of one million Naira, which the family obliged and paid, but could not secure the release, because Muhammed Nazifi wanted more for ransom.
The police said it also recovered eight hundred and forty thousand Naira, being part of the ransom that was paid.
