Abducted High Court Judge, Justice Mshelia, Regains Freedom in Borno
Justice Haruna Mshelia, a High Court judge abducted in Borno State, has been released, according to recent reports. Justice Mshelia was kidnapped on June 24, 2024, alongside his wife, driver, and orderly while traveling along the Biu-Maiduguri road.
The judge’s abduction sparked widespread concern, especially due to the ongoing security challenges in Borno, a state grappling with insurgent activities. Fortunately, after several weeks in captivity, Justice Mshelia regained his freedom, though details surrounding his release remain unclear.
The Borno State Police Command is continuing its investigation into the abduction, and no official statement has been made regarding the condition of his wife and others taken with him. This incident underscores the persistent security threats in the region and the danger faced by public officials and citizens alike.
