Team, IRT, and their counterparts at the Anti-Kidnapping Unit of the Abuja Police Command, deployed to track and rescue Alhaji Salami, the Chairman of Gateway Insurance and a former Chairman of Peugeot Automobile of Nigeria, kidnapped on Tuesday March 21, 2017, at Maitama area of Abuja. They busted into the room and found him lying helplessly.
The operatives, who were led by ACP Abba Kyari, quickly assured that they were policemen who had come to rescue him. The visibly shocked man could not contain his joy as his kidnappers had vowed to keep him in their custody until his relatives pay the complete amount they demanded as ransom. He was moved swiftly to the Force Headquarters Abuja, where he reunited with members of his family. The IRT operatives didn’t stop at his rescue; they went all out for his kidnappers, who they said were members of a notorious gang that has been terrorizing the FCT for a long time. 11 suspects including three ex-convicts and a dismissed official of the Department of State Security, DSS, were all rounded up. An Ak47 rifle, two pistols and a loaded magazine were all recovered in the five-day operation.
