He said the victims were returning to Gwombe and Pesu villages after attending a political function at neighbouring Gwargwada village. He said the gunmen, who are over 30 in number and armed with guns, barricaded the road with logs of wood. They flagged down motorcycles and whisked the victims into the bush.
