Mohammed Ardo, has said that he
slaughtered "only five people" while
operating with his fellow sect members. Ardo, who was on Wednesday paraded before journalists at a police facility in Abuja, said it takes him two minutes to slaughter any
human victim marked for the
slab.
The suspect said he was the leader of a
five-man team of butchers. According to him, the four other members pinned the victim down while he cut the throat.
The 30-year-old suspect, who spoke to
journalists through an interpreter (he spoke in Kanuri), said he joined Boko Haram in 2012 and had been operating with the sect until his arrest on July 12.
Ardo was arrested by the police along Darazo-Basrika Road, Bauchi while fleeing from Balmo Forest. He has since been in police custody until news
filtered in at the weekend that he had
escaped from custody. The Force Public
Relations Officer, Frank Mba, said the police authorities decided to parade the suspect to debunk reports of his purported escape. Mba pleaded with the media to always exercise restraint in the reportage of terrorist activities, saying the issue was too sensitive
for anyone to report without cross checking the facts with the appropriate security agencies.
