Family members of the Al-Kadriyar girls revealed that they paid ransom to bandits for the release of five of the six kidnapped girls, contradicting reports by the FCT police and Nigerian Army that the girls and other victims were rescued through their joint efforts. The uncles of the girls stated that they paid the ransom and the police were not involved, while the soldiers only assisted in locating the girls and providing a cover for their retrieval. The FCT Police Command had earlier claimed that the girls and other abducted victims were rescued from the bandits’ den in Kajuru forest in Kaduna State by a joint team of policemen and soldiers of the Nigerian Army.
