Spokesman of the command, DSP Abdullahi Haruna Kiyawa stated this in a press statement.
He said the arrest was made in two different operations led by SP Shehu Dahiru.
“A team of policemen led by SP Shehu Dahiru while on intelligence-led patrol arrested 25-year-old Adamu Shehu of Sabon Gari Safara via Kwanar Dangora in Kiru LGA.
“The suspect admitted coordinating a series of kidnapping operations both in Falgore forest and Dansoshiya forest,” he said.
