A mob has set ablaze two corpses suspected to be those of bandits in Nasarawa-Azzara community in Kachia LGA of Kaduna State.

City & Crime earlier reported that soldiers killed three suspected bandits in their hideout in neighbouring Azzara village last Wednesday.

A community leader, who disclosed the incident to our reporter on Sunday, said the two corpses were found in a forest in neighbouring Hayin-Dam.

A vigilante, simply identified as Hassan, said that before vigilantes could get to the scene after the discovery, some youths had already burnt the corpses.
