TWO KILLED IN AN ATTACK IN HEIPANG, SUSPECT ARRESTED ALIVE
Fulani armed terrorists invaded Pwomol Village in Heipang District of Barkin Ladi Local Government Area around midnight, marking the second attack on the Heipang community within one week.
The assault resulted in the killing of two youths of the community who were keeping watch, while one other victim sustained critical injuries and is currently receiving medical attention.
In the course of the incident, one of the attackers, identified as Suleiman, a Fulani man from Fass community in Riyom Local Government Area, was apprehended alive at about 1:00 a.m.
The suspect was arrested around the Redemption Camp area between Heipang and Kassa, with blood stains reportedly found on his body.
He is currently in the custody of security operatives at Sector 4 in Barkin Ladi.
The Berom Youth Moulders-Association (BYM), under the leadership of its National President, Barr. Dalyop Solomon Mwantiri, calls on security agencies to carry out a thorough and transparent investigation into the attack and ensure that the arrested suspect is brought to justice without delay.
The Association further demands that the suspect be made to provide useful information that will lead to the arrest of other perpetrators and collaborators involved in the attack.
BYM commends the immediate intervention of the Special Task Force, Operation Enduring Peace, and urges residents of the area to remain vigilant and cooperate with security agencies by reporting suspicious movements and activities within their communities.
The Berom Youth Moulders-Association remains committed to the protection of lives and the pursuit of justice for victims of violent attacks across Berom land and beyond.
