Security forces in Katsina have arrested a woman caught supplying ammunition to bandits in Danmusa, Katsina State.
According to reports, the woman was caught while transiting to meet the bandits in a commercial bus.
She is currently being interrogated by military authorities who are expected to uncover the intended targets for the ammunition.
She is expected to be handed over to the Nigeria Police Force for prosecution.
Security experts say the development is one of the ongoing challenges in the battle against banditry in the region, where the illicit trade remains profitable and deeply entrenched among some unpatriotic citizens.
”Eradicating this menace continues to be a formidable task for authorities,” a security expert noted.
