The Katsina Police Public Relations Officer, Gambo Isah, confirmed that the judge was kidnapped by gunmen.
According to him, “yes, we learnt that the Judge was kidnapped by gunmen but there are fundamental issues and questions involved in this matter.
“The place from where he was said to have been kidnapped is no longer a court because that court was relocated to Safana town because of security threats.
“So, what was he doing there more so as everybody is aware that courts are not currently sitting due to the ongoing strike action by judicial workers.

“It is sad that he was kidnapped but what took him there?”
