Medical Doctor Arrested For Providing Services To Bandits
A medical doctor, Lawan Ado, has been arrested by security operatives for treating wounded bandits in Katsina State.
Among his patients is a notorious bandit, Usman Modi-Modi on whose head a N50million bounty was placed.
Dr Ado allegedly treated the injured bandits in the Safana Local Government Area and other adjoining communities.
In a video, Ado was heard giving details of how he was paid in several outings where he treated the bandits.
According to his confession, the first bandit he treated was Usman Modi-Modi, after the gang leader sustained gunshot wounds in a clash with the Yan Kyanbara vigilante group.
“He was first admitted at a hospital in Taskiya for treatment, but two days later, they brought me for further treatment. I was paid N18,000 for my service,” Ado confessed.
“I also treated other bandits like, Mai Kudi, who was shot in Kurfi and I was paid N8,000. Then Audu, one of Usman Modi-Modi’s lieutenants who also paid me N8,000. Dogo Mardi, who was shot during a robbery operation paid me N11,000,” he added.
