Following the Sunday bloody jailbreak attempt at the Department of the State Security Service (SSS), Abuja, officials are now questioning detained Boko Haram suspects to know if external collaborators were involved in acclaimed failed but bloody —jailbreak.
At least Twenty suspects died in the attempted jailbreak at the Abuja SSS facility, according to the Service. Some suspects, especially passers-by, arrested within the vicinity of the SSS Asokoro headquarters have been released – in line with the Service’s “respect for human rights”.
It was learnt that some of those arrested had valid identification cards and they were passers-by.
A new framework put in place by security agencies triggered the intervention of soldiers during the jailbreak.
A source, who spoke in confidence, said the Service had started finding out the remote and immediate causes of the botched jailbreak.
