The spokesperson for the IMN, Ibrahim Musa, said in a statement that, “According to our list there are about 730 men and women, who are still missing, since Saturday December 12, 2015. These missing people were either killed by the army or are in detention but their whereabouts are still unknown and undisclosed.” The statement further stated that about 220 IMN members were in Kaduna prison, while others were reportedly in military custody in Kaduna, Bauchi and Abuja.
