Nigerian troops from the 6 Brigade arrested two suspected kidnappers in Taraba State on September 16, 2024, recovering an AK-47 rifle and ammunition during the operation. The primary suspect, Ali Tambaya, confessed to purchasing the weapon for N500,000 and named another suspect involved in supplying ammunition. In a separate case in Jalandhar, Punjab, police apprehended two men, Harjinder Singh and Manjot Singh, for the abduction and murder of NRI Mohinder Singh, who was kidnapped on September 14, 2024. The suspects rear-ended Singh's vehicle and killed him after he recognized one of them by voice. Both cases highlight ongoing issues of kidnapping and violent crime in Nigeria and India, prompting calls for public assistance in reporting suspicious activities.
