The Department of State Security, DSS, in collaboration with the Kano Hisbah Board, apprehended a 17-year-old girl and her sponsor and retrieved a four-year-old child, Aisha, that they stole from Nguru, Yobe State.<\/p>\n

DSS Kano office explained that Hisbah officials arrested the 17-year-old lady (names withheld) after they suspected that she had no connection with the child.<\/p>\n

Upon interrogation, the 17-year-old girl reportedly said she was lured to abduct the child by a man she knew as a groundnut seller close to her home after he promised her that nothing would happen to her.<\/p>\n

DSS operatives subsequently tracked and arrested the man, who allegedly confessed that the kidnapping of four-year-old Aisha was the third nefarious act he had perpetrated in Nguru.<\/p>\n

He admitted to being a member of a cartel that steals children across states.<\/p>\n
