Misal, who said a search team was dispatched and the body found, however, could not confirm if it was a case of assassination or kidnapping gone bad.
A source said: ‘They stormed his house here at Sabon Gari at around 1 am and took him away. They later called an official of the local government to inform him that he was dead and said they should go and search for his corpse in the bush. Members of the community went into the bush, searched and later found his body, which has been taken to town.’
