Two children, aged five and 10 who were abducted at gun point after their mother was robbed of a huge sum of money have been rescued by the Ebonyi State<\/a> Police Command.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The spokesperson of the command, Mrs Loveth Odah disclosed this in an interview with newsmen on Wednesday in Abakaliki.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Odah, who confirmed that the kidnappers robbed the mother of the siblings of a huge amount of money before abducting her children, the kidnappers also demanded N10 million ransom but had to abandon the children at a location in Afikpo South Local Government Area of the state, after a manhunt by police operatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She further disclosed that the children had been reunited with their mother while efforts were being made to track down the abductors and their collaborators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur men are currently in pursuit of the fleeing suspected kidnappers; also investigations are ongoing to unmask possible conspirators with a view to arresting them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI want to assure the public that there is no hiding place for criminals in the state and that efforts are being intensified to sustain police<\/a> surveillance in every part of the state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe also urge the public to volunteer timely information on criminal activities in their areas to assist the police to nip crime in the bud,\u201d Odah said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
