About fifty-five persons involved in a Katsina wedding are feared to have been kidnapped.

The victims, according to report, were escorting a bride home when their abductors ambushed them along Damari town in Sabuwa Local Government Area of the state.

The incident happened on Thursday around 9pm.

It was said that three local security volunteers lost their lives while trying to rescue the victims.

“Most of those the hoodlums attacked and abducted were those who were already crowded and riding in an open van called canter vehicle.

“The victims were initially over 70, mostly friends to the bride, in which several others escaped after jumping off the moving canter van when the terrorists hijacked the van,” sources said.
