    Published on

    The Plateau State Police Command has announced that 22 suspects arrested in connection with the June 21, 2025 mob action in Mangun community of Mangu local government area of the State, will be arraigned in court this Thursday, July 10, 2025.

    It will be recalled that a 31-member group of wedding guests travelling from Basawa community in Zaria, Kaduna State, en route to Qua’an Pan LGA of Plateau State, was attacked by a mob in Mangun, leading to the death of 13 of the travellers on June 21.

    The victims reportedly lost their way and stopped to ask for directions in Mangun village when they were attacked by the mob, which led to the death of 13 people, including women and children.

    According to an invite sent to accredited journalists in the State by the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), DSP Alfred Alabo, late Wednesday night, “We therefore invite all members of the press to come witness this process tomorrow at the Plateau State High Court (Court 10) by 09:00am, after which we will move back to the Plateau State Police Command Headquarters where the CP will have a brief conference with the members of the press.”

    He added: “A vehicle will be made available to convey the journalists from the High Court to the Command Headquarters.”
