Hunters rescue more kidnap victims in Anambra

The Nigerian Hunters and Forest Security Service (NHFSS), on Monday, said that its operatives rescued a kidnap victim along Nri-Enugwu-Ukwu road between Anaocha and Njikoka LGA of Anambra State.

This is contained in a statement by the Zonal Commander of NHFSS in the South East, ACG Mark Okonkwo, on Tuesday in Abuja.

Okonkwo said that the successful operation took place barely three weeks after the rescue of two siblings from kidnappers and recovered stolen vehicles around Nkwelle-Ezunaka axis of Oyi LGA  of the state.

He said that the hunters received a distress call at 2000 hours on Sunday from a passer-by, who saw some people forcing someone into a vehicle along the aforementioned route.

Okonkwo said he immediately mobilised his men for rescue mission and followed the direction from the Intel.

“On sighting us, the hoodlums began to shoot sporadically to stop them, but they gallantly surged on and the hoodlums swiftly sped off throwing their captive away from the vehicle. (NAN)

“Our rapid response to the situation yielded positive results and we were able to rescue a woman, who was thrown out from the kidnappers’ speeding vehicle.

“We equally recovered a stolen vehicle at the scene, ” he said.
