The police say the two Chinese kidnapped by gunmen at Ajage Village in Nasarawa Local Government on Aug. 5 have regained freedom.

The spokesman for the police in Nasarawa State, Ismaila Numan, made this known to journalists in Lafia on Tuesday.

Mr. Numan added that the victims were released by their abductors following sustained pressure from the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) and the Police Mobile Force.
