Armed Men Kidnap Pregnant Woman and Baby in Kaduna

On a late Monday night, four individuals, including a pregnant woman and her six-month-old baby, were abducted from Alrahus Estate in Millennium City, Chikun Local Government Area. The attack began around 11:30 PM, causing panic among residents as armed men systematically entered homes.

Abdulladir Bello, the husband of the pregnant woman, received a call from her warning of the intruders. He attempted to contact the police but was unable to reach them, so he turned to the military, which promptly dispatched personnel to the area.

The kidnappers broke into a neighboring house, abducting a man, his wife, and their baby, before fleeing with Bello's wife. The kidnappers later demanded a significant ransom for her release.

Bello commended the military for their swift response and urged the community to collaborate with security agencies to combat rising insecurity. This incident occurred just five days after another attack in PW Babban Saura, where a man was killed, and his family was abducted.
