According to reports, the victims, a man and a woman who are both visually impaired, were kidnapped along Riyom Road in Riyom Local Government Area of Plateau State on Monday, November 2, 2026.

The victims were reportedly travelling in a vehicle with seven other passengers when the attackers intercepted them. The other passengers reportedly escaped during the incident.
