Their action was said to have irked the bandits who stormed Ruwan Tofa and identified those who fled from Tungar Baushe.

“The armed men then came and began to burn grain stores and houses of the residents. They intercepted some of the residents who had ran to take cover at Ruwan Tofa community. They also came to Tungar Baushe and abducted 50 persons there.”

“They did not spare any one including women, nursing mothers and children. They herded them into bush. We are now counting losses following this attack even though no one was killed,” a resident said.
