Troops of the 3 Division and Operation SAFE HAVEN have recovered a hidden AK-47 rifle, magazine, and 30 rounds of ammunition in Pandam Forest, located in Qua’an Pan Local Government Area of Plateau State.

This was revealed in a post on Tuesday by security analyst, Zagazola Makama on X.

According to the post, the recovery took place around 1:20 p.m. on June 3, following credible intelligence that some bandits had buried weapons in the forest while fleeing from troops of Operation LAFIYAN JAMA’A.

“During the search, troops discovered a freshly dug area, which was immediately excavated,” Zagazola quoted the Nigerian Army as saying.

“They recovered one AK-47 rifle, one magazine, and 30 rounds of 7.62mm (Special) ammunition, all carefully concealed.”

The Nigerian Army noted that the weapons are now in the custody of the troops and that further investigations are ongoing.
