HOTPEN – Bandits terrorizing Kaduna State have killed a newly-wedded groom after they attacked his home trying to kidnap his pregnant bride, Daily Trust report.
About 50 bandits on motorcycles attacked a town called Jere which is along the deadly Kaduna-Abuja highway to kidnap innocent residents of the town.
They were said to have moved from house-to-house but residents said it appeared they had targeted the home of a former Commissioner, Abdulrahman Ibrahim Jere who was out of town at the time.
Since they could not find the former commissioner, they abducted his wife and a baby girl, his younger sister and his wife’s sister.
Hassan Adamu Jere, a resident of the community, said the bandits also attacked the home of a newly wedded couple and attempted to abduct the bride but the groom had resisted.
He said while dragging his bride with the bandits, they shot him dead.
