A deadly transborder criminal gang of five suspects, have been shot dead by security operatives in Anambra State.
The leader of the criminal gang, popularly known as Odumodu was also shot dead.
Odumodu is said to be behind many criminal activities in Imo and Anambra States.
Sources said the deadly kidnapper, who runs a gang, operates from a camp in Imo State, from where he comes into Anambra to perpetuate criminality.
Press secretary to Anambra State government, Mr Christian Aburime, who hinted of the killing of Odumodu said he was gunned down today by security forces in Anambra State, while on operation.
Aburime said: “The dreaded Odumodu, leader of a criminal gang, operating from Imo State into border towns in Anambra was gunned down by the gallant Anambra security forces, with four other members.
“One AK-47 and four pump actions were recovered from the criminals by the gallant security forces.”
Eye witnesses say stray bullet killed some innocent citizens within the Nkpor round about as security operatives chased the dire criminal group from ugwunwasike till the ever busy Nkpor junction whilst engaging in gun duel.
