•Rarara and mother

Operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS) in Kano have arrested one of the masterminds behind the kidnap of the mother of ace political singer, Dauda Kahutu Rarara.

It was gathered that the operatives also killed one suspect in a covert operation, reports Daily Trust.

According to a highly placed source in the Command, N26.5 million was also recovered in the process.

The source said, the Kano command’s tactical team based on reliable intelligence busted a gang of five bandits in Makarfi bushes where they were sharing the ransom.

“One Hamisu Tukur, is currently in custody with gun shot injuries, while Bature was killed,” the source said.

Recall that the armed men had broken into the residence of Rara’s mother, Hajiya Hauwa’u Adamu, in Kahutu and abducted her about three weeks ago.

She however regained freedom after spending 20 days in captivity.
