The suspects reportedly attempted to defraud their victim in a taxi with reg no. KUJ 959 AQ around Wuse 2, Abuja.

The people in the area were said to have killed one of them after they were apprehended before police officers arrived at the scene and rescued the others.

Yusuf said, “The Commissioner of Police, CP Bala Ciroma, has ordered a discreet investigation into the incident and appealed to members of the public to shun jungle justice.”
