Woman arrests man who abducted, killed her daughter

The woman who went to deliver a second part of the ransom demanded by thehoodlum, raised alarm when the kidnapper came to pick the loot, and she was assisted by passers-by to apprehend him.

Family members of the deceased told journalists that 23-year-old Fatima travelled to Kaduna from Zaria where she was to spend four days.

“When she did not return after four days and she could not answer our phone calls,we were worried.

“Later, a man picked the call and told us that Fatima was abducted by him. He demanded N100,000 as ransom.

“We raised the amount and took it to him at a place in Wusasa, Zaria. He promised to release Fatima that day but did not.

“Three days after he called again and asked for another N100,000. Late Fatima‘s mother and her sister sold a plot of land and took the money to the place he fixed in Wusasa but on sighting the man, the mother recognised him and raised alarm.

“The confusion attracted people who assisted in apprehenting him. He was taken to a Police station nearby where the officers interrogated him,” the family members said.

Police sources said Aminu had confessed to the crime and had shown where he buried Fatima in his house located at Limanchin Iya area of Zaria.

Aminu was also said to have confessed of participating in abducting other individuals.
