The Police in Plateau say they have arrested three persons in Kapil village of Chip District in Pankshin Local Government over the alleged killing of a 26-year old man, Mr. Chinme Daniel.

Mr. Tyeopev Terna, the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), for the Police Command in the state, confirmed the arrest of the suspects in Jos on Monday.

The command’s image maker said that the arrest of the suspects, whose names remained withheld, followed a complaint lodged by a family of the deceased, Mr. Lawi Dabwen.

“We have the three suspects in our custody and we shall try them before a law court, even though we are still investigating the incident,” Terna said.

He said that the three suspects, who reside at Kapil village, were alleged to have committed the crime 6.00 a.m of Nov. 25 in the area.

The PPRO called on members of the public to be conscious of the activities of criminally minded persons and alert the police whenever they suspected any strange movement.

This he said became necessary in order not fall victim of people of questionable character.

Terna, however, warned the public to guard against jungle justice, adding that the police would deal decisively with anyone found indulging in such act.

While the exact impact of these attacks remains unclear, reports suggest that Israel’s defense systems intercepted several threats over its airspace. This marks a significant escalation as the Houthis widen their involvement in the conflict beyond their typical operations within Yemen and neighboring Saudi Arabia. The Houthis’ Justification In their statement, the Houthis framed the attack as retaliation for Israel’s military actions in Gaza, which they characterized as indiscriminate bombings resultin...
