The Joint Task Force in Kano state North
West Nigeria has discovered a bomb factory
at an isolated part of Tamburawa Bridge –
an outskirt of Kano city.
Three people
suspected to be terrorists were arrested
during the early morning raid by JTF in the
area today.
Speaking to newsmen, the Director State Security
Services in Kano Bassey Eteng said that a pre-
emptive raid was carried out this morning at
about 6am by the JTF and the operation was
successful.
According to the director, most of the items
recovered at the factory were likely to be used by
the terrorists to launch an attack on Salah day
but the intelligence report that was at the
disposal of the security agency truncated the
anticipated attacks.
Items recovered includes eight AK47 magazine,
one SMG magazine, one SMG rifle, twelve primed
IED, nine un primed IED, high calibre IED,
assorted army uniform, chemicals used to make
the bomb and six hundred and thirteen rounds
of ammunition.
Meanwhile the director says there was no
casualty of either party during the operations
while stressing investigation will continue to
uncover the hide out of any suspected terrorist
across the state.
