Mohammed Ali told NAN that “the girls were personally brought back by the insurgents.

“I shook hands with two of them, very young men but well armed.

“They warned us against sending girls to school, arguing they should be married,” he said.

“I personally picked some of the girls to their houses in my car,” Ali said.

NAN reports that the girls went home but were recalled to the hospital for profiling and medical check-up.
