Military forces engaged in Operation Hadin Kai have successfully apprehended three women accused of aiding Boko Haram and ISWAP terrorist factions in Borno State. The arrests took place on April 13 within the Abari general area, located in Monguno Local Government Area, a joint operation conducted by operatives from the Sector 3 Military Intelligence Brigade and members of the Civilian Joint Task Force (CJTF).
The detained individuals have been identified as Falmata Abukar, aged 43; Halima Audu, 35; and Mairo Abba, who is 17 years old.
According to reports from security sources, the suspects were intercepted as they were reportedly travelling from Abari towards Mararaba village, situated in Kukawa Local Government Area.
During the apprehension, security operatives recovered several items, including 12 sets of materials for terrorist uniforms, 176 bottles of herbicide, 22 wrappers, 24 assorted children's clothing items, a mosquito net, one mat, and cash amounting to N15,500.
Sources indicate that these recovered items are believed to be logistical provisions intended for insurgents active in the Lake Chad region.
The three suspects are currently in military custody, where they are undergoing initial investigations to ascertain the full extent of their involvement and any potential connections to terrorist networks.
