Armed bandits, who kidnapped the 20-year-old daughter of Karae village head, Ciroma Ahmadu, in Batsari Local Government Area of Katsina State, have demanded ransom to free her.
A resident, Mustapha Ruma, who spoke with SaharaReporters on Saturday, said the bandits had made contact with the father of the victim and threatened to kill the lady if he didn’t pay the ransom demanded.
