Two of the abducted students of Bethel Baptist High School
have regained freedom after they escaped from the bandits’ den two weeks after
their abduction.
A senior staff of the school, who doesn’t want to be
mentioned, disclosed this to Daily Trust on Thursday.
It was gathered that the escaped students, who are
brothers, are currently receiving treatment at an undisclosed hospital.
Recall that on July 6 bandits in large
numbers stormed the school located by the Kaduna-Kachia highway and abducted
121 students.
“Yes the two students escaped from their abductors,” the
source simply said.
The Kaduna State Police Command’s Public Relations Officer,
ASP Jalige Mohammed, confirmed the story.
He said the students were found in the bush by the police
and taken to the hospital.
He one is 20 years old while the other is 16 years old.
“They escaped but were found in the bush and we took them to
the hospital. A statement will be issued,” he said.
Daily Trust also gathered that, on Monday, the bandits
released one student on medical ground.
Therefore, a total of 119 students are still in the bandits’
custody.
The bandits have demanded N500,000 ransom for each of the
students.
