Barely a week after the Nigerian Army from the 3 Armored Division, Rukuba-Jos handed 13 suspects to the Plateau State Police Command; the police on Thursday declared eight suspects wanted in connection with the mysterious disappearance of a former Army Chief of Administration, Maj. General Mohammed Idris Alkali (rtd).
This was disclosed by the Police Public Relations of the Command, DSP Matthias Terna Tyopev, in Jos.
The suspects declared wanted include two panel beaters (Da Chuwang Samuel aka Mourinho; Nyam Samuel aka Soft Touch)’; a farmer, Pam Gyang Dung (aka Boss); a truck driver, Timothy Chuan and Village Head of Dura – Du District in Jos South Local Government Area of Plateau State, Yakubu Rap.
Tyopev said preliminary investigation revealed that the suspects masterminded and executed the disappearance of Alkali.
He advised anyone with useful information on their whereabouts to report to the nearest police facility or call the following telephone numbers – 07059473022, 08038907662, 08075391844, and 09053872296.
General Alkali was said to have retired a few weeks before he was declared missing on Monday, September 3, 2018, a day after gunmen swooped on Dura-Du and killed over a dozen people.
About three cars were said to have been recovered from a mining pond in Dura Du in Du District of Jos South LGA during a cordon and search operation conducted by a team of soldiers led by the Garrison Commander of 3 Armour Division, Brigadier General Umar Mohammed.
It would be recalled that many civil rights organisations have condemned the militarization of Jos metropolis and other communities by soldiers and arrest of persons in public places over the disappearance of Alkali.
