Court Remands Suspects in Angwan Rukuba Attack Case
On April 10, 2026, a Plateau State court, presided over by Justice Danladi Longden, remanded four suspects in custody following their arraignment by the Department of State Services (DSS). The suspects, Isa Umar Ibrahim, Auwalu Abubakar, Musa Abubakar Ibrahim, and Adamu Isa Alhassan, face multiple charges, including criminal conspiracy, culpable homicide, illegal possession of firearms, and illegal dealing in arms and ammunition.
These charges stem from their alleged involvement in the Angwan Rukuba attacks, which resulted in the deaths of at least 30 individuals, including children, on March 28, 2025. The court has scheduled the next hearing for April 30, 2026.
The Plateau State Attorney General, Philemon Audu Daffi, is leading the prosecution, emphasizing the seriousness of the offenses under the Penal Code Law of Plateau State, 2017.
