BREAKING; Police rescue Adelabu’s sister, twin sons alive, kill two kidnappers
Operatives of the Nigeria Police Force have rescued Mrs. Olaide Busayo Adegoke John-Paul and her 12-year-old twin sons, Peter and Paul, during a rescue operation conducted on Saturday evening, three days after they were abducted in Oyo State.
The victims, including the younger sister of former Minister of Power, Chief Adebayo Adelabu, were freed at about 7:30 p.m. following sustained intelligence-led operations by security personnel.
Police sources said two suspected kidnappers were killed during a gun battle with operatives, while two firearms were recovered from the gang.
Mrs. John-Paul and her children were reportedly kidnapped at about 7:30 a.m. on June 3 while on their way to school.
According to security sources, intelligence gathering and continuous tactical pressure mounted on the kidnappers forced the criminals into a confrontation with police operatives, leading to the successful rescue of the victims.
The victims were rescued unharmed and have since been reunited with their family.
Meanwhile, security operatives have launched a manhunt for other members of the kidnapping syndicate who escaped during the operation.
