File: A Nigerian Policeman.
The Rivers State Police Command said its operatives have smashed a kidnapping syndicate and arrested four suspects.
The arrested suspects were said to have kidnapped a woman while she was attending to customers in her shop in the Aluu community in the Ikwerre Local Government Area of the state and whisked her away to an unknown destination.
The police, however, said the woman was rescued following an operation launched by the command, adding that the operational vehicle used by the criminals was also recovered.
The command said the arrest followed a distress call it received from the victim’s spouse, simply identified as Mr Ikechukwu, which prompted an immediate response.
