Security forces have arrested a female suspect in Malumfashi town, Katsina State, allegedly found in possession of loaded magazines and military gear concealed in her bag.
The development was revealed on Monday in a post by security analyst Zagazola Makama via his verified handle on X.
According to the report, the woman was intercepted around 1:00 a.m. at a routine security checkpoint while attempting to leave the town under suspicious circumstances.
A search of her belongings reportedly uncovered three loaded magazines, a military uniform, tactical trousers, a combat jacket, multiple mobile phones, and other security-related items. The discovery has raised concerns about possible links to terror logistics networks.
Sources said the suspect is currently in custody and undergoing interrogation.
Investigators are working to determine her affiliations and whether she is part of a broader network involved in supplying arms and equipment to terrorist groups operating in the region.
Although authorities have yet to release her identity, the case is generating significant attention online.
In a video interview shared by C-Watch, a community-based security outfit that assisted in the arrest, the woman appeared visibly shaken as she was questioned about the contents of her bag.
