Gen Enenche explained that the gallant troops successfully executed the operation, on Monday, following actionable and credible intelligence on the movement of bandits in that area.
He stated that during the encounter, the two bandits were eliminated while others fled with gunshot wounds inflicted on them.
He added that credible source affirmed that the suspects were part of the bandits that have been terrorising the area.
Gen Eneche pointed out that the gallant troops have continued to dominate the area with aggressive patrols to deny bandits freedom of action.
