BANDITS, on Tuesday night, attacked Dan-Honu II community in New Millennium City of Chikun local government area of Kaduna State, kidnapping eight persons.
Among those abducted were a newly wedded couple who got married last Saturday, Chief Imam of the community mosque, his wife and three children, including a 10-month-old baby.
The bandits, who stormed the community around 8:50pm numbering about 10, with AK47 rifles and other dangerous weapons, were said to be clad in black, with one of them masked.
A community member, Mohammed, who escaped the abduction by the whiskers, told our Correspondent that the bandits started by picking the Imam and his family members, who they met outside the community Juma’at Mosque before proceeding to a four-flat compound where they picked the new couple.
According to Mohammed, “I was inside my own apartment when the bandits stormed our compound. At first, when they started banging the new couple’s door, because they went to their apartment straight, I thought they were security people who came to arrest my neighbour.
