The Nasarawa State Police command says it has recaptured a member of the Book Haram terrorist who recently escaped from the Kuje correctional centre whose name is Hassan Hassan.
Terrorists on Tuesday attacked the Kuje medium custodial centre in Abuja and freed over 800 inmates including members of the Boko Haram, Islamic State West African Province (ISWAP) and others.
The Federal Government has subsequently declared wanted on Friday 64 of the inmates who had terror-related charges having their names and other details published.
in a statement made by the Nasarawa State Police PRO, DSP Ramhan Nansel said the Boko Haram escapee from jail was nabbed early hours of Saturday.
“The Commissioner of Police, CP Adesina Soyemi has ordered for the transfer of the suspect to a safer location while an intensive search for other escapees and handing over process of the arrested inmate progresses.
“The Commissioner of Police, however, appreciated the efforts of the Police operatives for a job well done and assured members of the public of the Command’s unrelenting efforts at making the public space safer for all”.
