He said the bandits sneaked from their hideout in Kaduna State to execute the heinous act.

”I don’t have the actual number of people killed during the attack,” he said.

He said investigation into the matter had commenced to enable them to track down the perpetrators of the criminal act.

According to him, a team of policemen have been despatched to the area to safeguard lives and property of people of Sarkin Pawa. ( NAN)
