According to him, the Divisional Police Officer in charge of the area received an order from the Commissioner of Police, Kaduna Command, to send operatives to the spot and bring the man out.

He claimed that the Commissioner also instructed them to ask those in the neighborhood why the man had been held in a room for such a long time.

He claimed that he had been imprisoned in the room for about 20 years, where he lived without being fed or cared for.

He said, “When we arrived on the scene, we discovered the man naked. We gave him clothes to wear and carried him out before bringing him to the hospital for medical evaluation.”

Jalige added that Yekini Ayoku, the commissioner of police in Kaduna, has also directed the conduct of a thorough inquiry to determine the precise circumstances surrounding the elderly man’s cruel treatment.
He stated that the DPO Magajin Gari Police Division had started an investigation and will release the results.

He claimed that they discovered roughly five locals who were helping them with their research.

“The persons we encountered in the property and the nearby houses, we hope will assist us in getting the genuine position of the entire scenario,” the authors write. “We were given to understand that the man had children and a wife who were nowhere to be located.

What is important for now is keeping the man alive and providing for his comfort, and we have succeeded in doing so, said Jalige. “We will work with the physicians to receive their report on the man’s health situation,” Jalige said. (NAN)
