This is coming a few days after three suspected kidnappers of the Bethel School Students in Kaduna were arrested and paraded at the Force Headquarters in Abuja.

The bandits had earlier in the year in January attacked the same community and abducted one Professor Aliyu Mohammed of the Abubakar Tafawa University Department of Agriculture , Bauchi State, who was released after a ransom was reportedly paid.
