The suspects, who are Nura Aliyu, 20; Abubakar Adamu, 21; Abubakar Muhammed, 23; Abdulhameed Yusuf, 18; and Yusuf Husseini, 20, are believed to be members of the Shila group, which is associated with street violence, extortion, and robbery.

The case has been forwarded to the State Criminal Investigation Department for further investigation and prosecution.",
