Witnesses said the incident occurred in the early hours of Tuesday. They said many residents were injured by the irate group.
The victim, Ali Abdullai, according to an official of the hunters association, was killed during interrogation by police personnel attached to the Doubeli Divisional Police Station. According to the secretary of the hunters association, Jibrin Modi, the police ‘mistakenly’ arrested the victim because he bore a similar name to the actual suspect they were after whose name was Abdullahi Ali.
The police however mobilised and blocked all the major roads. This caused traffic jam across the area. The military were later drafted in to nip the crisis in the bud.
