Just In! DSS Official Kidnapped, Killed

Posted by on September 16, 2020 0


Armed men on Saturday abducted a State Security Service (SSS) official in Katsina State and killed him a day later while in captivity.

The official, Sadiq Bindawa, until his death, was serving at the SSS headquarters in Abuja, PREMIUM TIMES learnt.

Sources said the assailants stormed the home of the deceased in Katsina town after he arrived from Abuja and whisked him away.

“The abductors demanded N5 million ransom, which was given to them at an agreed point on Sunday.

“However, after receiving the ransom, they were ambushed by security operatives who were monitoring them, and a shootout occurred,” a relative of the deceased told PREMIUM TIMES, asking not to be named for security reasons.

“Following the firefight, many armed bandits were killed, others fled with bullet wounds and the money. Those that escaped went back to the den and shot dead Mr Bindawa,” the source said, saying the family was briefed by the SSS who, however, told them not to talk to journalists.

Other family members of the deceased confirmed the information to our reporter.

The body of the deceased was later found in the bush, the source added.

Efforts to speak with the SSS in Katsina was unsuccessful. The director, Abdulmumini Danja, did not return calls or messages sent to him.
