The Police Command in Enugu State has foiled a kidnapping attempt, and neutralised two suspects in two separate operations in the state.
This is contained in a statement by the command’s spokesman, SP Daniel Ndukwe, on Tuesday in Enugu.
Ndukwe said that three firearms, including an AK-47 rifle, a Beretta and locally-fabricated double-barrelled pistols, two magazines loaded with 30 rounds of 7.62mm calibre ammunition, one live cartridge and phones were recovered during the operations.
According to him, on May 30, at about 8; 30p.m., information was received that a gang of about five armed men were attempting to kidnap an individual along the Nowas–Abakpa Road axis of Enugu.
