Eleven suspected members of the Islamist group Boko Haram were killed
Thursday by the army in Nigeria's western-central Niger state, officials
said.
A local resident told dpa large numbers of heavily armed men had entered the town of Aza, beginning on Monday.
"Then there were increased cases of robbery along the road at night, “he added.
Israel Ebije, a spokesman for the state governor, said four of the
suspects were captured and were being questioned to determine whether
they belonged to Boko Haram.
