GUNMEN on Wednesday killed two Indians, injuring
three at a factory in Maiduguri.
Sources said the gunmen demanded some money
from the Indian traders, before they fired several gun
shots into the factory and fled in an unmarked
vehicle chanting Allahu Akbar, (God is great!)
The Press Trust International quoted spokesman for
the Joint Task Force, Lt. Col. Musa Sagir, as saying,
"Suspected members of Boko Haram terrorists
attacked a Gum Arabic Factory located at Bayan
quarters, Maiduguri metropolis today at about 10:00
hours during heavy rain.
"The incident led to the death of two Indians, one
was wounded and is receiving treatment at the state
Specialist Hospital."
He said the suspects went away with some money
from the premises where they carried out the attack.
He said none of the local residents were killed or
injured, except for the Indian nationals affected.
According to him, investigation has commenced to
apprehend the hoodlums.
Islamic sect, Boko Haram, has been waging a
sustained war in the North, killing and destroying
property.
An eyewitness said, "The gunmen continued to fire to
scare us from the scene and it took the Joint Task
Force about 30 minutes to arrive at the scene."
