Kano State Police Command yesterday paraded 16 suspected criminals for robbery and kidnapping.
Spokesman Magaji Musa Majiya said the suspects, who robbed residents of Kurna Asabe, Tudun Bujuwa and Tudun Fulani, were led by an ex-convict, Auwalu Isa of Tudun Fulani quarters.
He said Isa had just been released from prison for robbery after serving four years.
Other suspects, Ukasha Ibrahim, Shehu Rabiu, Samshudeen Abdullah, Abubakar Abdullahi, Bashir Isa, among others, were arrested at flashpoints for attacking people and stealing their belongings.
Magaji said suspected kidnappers led by Jabir Usman Sule and Bashir Aminu of Cherinchi Gabas Dorayi quarters were nabbed for allegedly abducting a four-year old boy, demanding N2 million ransom from his father.
