\n\n

A shocking kidnapping incident occurred in Nasarawa State where a three-day-old baby boy was abducted from his teenage mother’s home in the Mararaba area. According to police reports, the 19-year-old mother was asleep with her newborn in an unfinished building when two men forcefully broke into the house late at night, threatened her, and took the baby away. 

The attackers reportedly used intimidation and violence, overpowering the helpless mother before fleeing with the child to an unknown destination. At the time of the incident, the baby’s father was away in Lagos, leaving the young mother alone and more vulnerable to the attack. The case was quickly reported to the police, prompting an immediate investigation. 

Acting on intelligence, police operatives launched a manhunt and arrested two suspects, recovering the baby safely from them. The suspects confessed to the crime and revealed that they had an accomplice who is still on the run. The child was taken for medical checks, confirmed healthy, and has since been reunited with his parents, while investigations continue to track down the remaining suspect.
