Boko Haram Leader Caught In Former House Of Representative Member's Home.

Another breakthrough came the way of
security agents in their confrontation with
members of the dreaded Jamaatu Ahlil Sunna
Lidawati wal Jihad, otherwise known as Boko
Haram, with the arrest of one of the sect’s
suspected leaders,
Hassan Pagi BUKAR, in the
residence of a 2003-2007 member of the
House of Representatives (names withheld).
The Boko Haram alleged leader was,
according to sources, arrested along with the
security guard of the erstwhile lawmaker.
Although the one-time member of the House
of Reps was said to have been briefly arrested
and interrogated, he has since been a daily
guest of the security agency that effected
the arrest.
The arrest was reportedly made in the
Gwarimpa area of the Federal Capital
territory, FCT, Abuja.
Sunday Vanguard learnt, last night, that the
arrest and interrogation of Bukar had started
yielding results.
For instance, the suspect reportedly
disclosed, upon interrogation, that his brief as
a sect member was to “carry out robbery
activities by dispossessing members of the
public of their cars”.
The security guard in the former House of the
Reps member’s residence (who was
described as a mere gateman) was said to
have been “employed from Sokoto”.
During further interrogation of Bukar, Sunday
Vanguard was made to understand that the
suspect disclosed that the cars used for
suicide bombings by the sect were stolen
vehicles.
One of the very indicting statements of
Bukar, the source said, “was that he
implicated the former Rep by saying that he
also buys some of the cars from him (Bukar)
when they are stolen.
