JTF Rescues Indians, Arrests 17 over Oil Theft in N’Delta!


Three Indian nationals were reportedly rescued by a combined squad of 130 Battalion of the Joint Task Force, the Nigerian Navy and the State Security Department in Rivers State in Abissa,  a small fishing port in Akuku’ Toru, Local Government Area of Rivers State.
And in a related development,  troops of 3, 19 and 195 Battalions of Sector 1 anti illegal oil bunkering squads of the JTF have uncovered 12 illegal oil distillation camps at Agbede forest, Obi-Ayagha and Otegele communities in Etsako West, Ugheli South and Warri South West Local Government Areas of Delta State.
The Indians, Messrs. Kanishk Johrar, Mohinder Saini, and Balwinder Singh were abducted about a month ago   aboard a fishing trawler at Malabo and brought into the shores of Nigerian waters by the gang, which demanded a million dollar ransom.
