DSS TAKES CUSTODY OF KADUNA-ABUJA TRAIN HOSTAGE ‘NEGOTIATOR’, TUKUR MAMU

The Department of State Services (DSS) has confirmed the arrest of Mr. Tukur Mamu, the Abuja–Kaduna train kidnap negotiator.

The former negotiator between the terrorists who abducted train passengers in Abuja and victims’ families, had said he was headed for Saudi Arabia when he was arrested and detained in Egypt for 24 hours.

According to a statement, the extradition followed a request by Nigeria’s military, law enforcement and intelligence community to their foreign partners to bring back Mamu to the country to answer critical questions on ongoing investigations relating to some security matters in parts of the country.
