They were reported to be members of Albarnawi faction of the Boko Haram that operates in Chad and mostly northern part of Borno State but came to Gombe State for another heinous assignment.

During the operation, one of them, Bilal Muhammed Umar, attempted to escape and was shot in the leg. He was, however, apprehended and is receiving medical treatment.

The terrorists were also arrested with Improvised Explosive Device (IED) materials that they could have assembled and used to attack parts of the State.
