Men of the Zamfara State Police Command have held a man, Jabiru Ibrahim, and are investigating him for culpable homicide after they found him in possession of a chopped-off human hand and some charms.
The command’s spokesperson, SP Mohammed Shehu, also disclosed that Ibrahim, a resident of Dauran in Zarmi LGA, is a member of the outlawed group known as Yansakai.
According to SP Mohammed, the suspect was arrested by the Joint Police and Military Operatives on Anti-Banditry Operation along Dauran – Zurmi axis and brought to the Police Command Headquarters, Gusau for discreet investigation.
He said, “Preliminary investigation revealed that the suspect was among the members of the outlawed group (YANSAKAI) who have been terrorising members of Dauran Community through Jungle Justice, leading to reprisal attacks by bandits and terrorists against the innocent members of the public.
“In the course of interrogation, the suspect has confessed that himself and three other members of his gang now at large carried out the gruesome killing of one Abdullah, a Fulani by tribe, and later the suspect removed the right hand of the deceased”.
SP Mohammed said that the investigation is still ongoing, and vowed that officers would not rest until the rest of the criminals involved are arrested, and charged to court for prosecution.
