Nigeria Army Frees 180 Detainees Including Toddlers.

Nigeria’s military has freed 180 detainees held for months, including women carrying babies with toddlers clinging to their
skirts, declaring they are no longer suspected of being part of the Boko Haram Islamic extremist insurgency.
Army chief Lt. Gen. Kenneth Minima says they “have been investigated and found to be free of all suspected incrimination.”
He handed them over Monday in northeastern Maiduguri city to Borno State Governor Kashim Shettima to be reunited with their families.

Some fme freed women said they are widows. Others said they were arrested because their brothers were suspected Boko Haram members.
President Muhammadu Buhari’s government says it’s investigating an Amnesty International report that last month charged Nigeria’s military for the deaths of 8,000 detainees, some killed outright and others who died of station and suffocation.
