The Plateau State Police Command is set to arraign 22 suspects today, July 10, in connection with the mob attack that led to the brutal killing of 13 wedding guests in Mangun community, Mangu Local Government Area.
The incident occurred on June 21, 2025, when 31 travellers from Basawa community in Zaria, Kaduna State, lost their way en route to Qua’an Pan LGA of Plateau State for a wedding. While seeking directions in Mangun, they were reportedly attacked by a mob, resulting in the deaths of 13 people, including women and children.
The Plateau State Police Command, in a statement issued by its Public Relations Officer, DSP Alfred Alabo, confirmed that the suspects will be arraigned before the Plateau State High Court.
The arraignment marks a significant step in seeking justice for the victims, whose killing drew national outrage and renewed calls for tighter security and community accountability in volatile regions.
