Secretary of the state Special Taskforce on Security Abdulrasheed Haruna, made the disclosure to newsmen in Gusau.
It would be recalled that the Governor had established the Special Taskforce to enforce measures to address the persistent security challenges of kidnapping for ransom and cattle rustling by bandits facing the state.
Haruna however told reporters that the suspected collaborators were handed over to security agencies for further investigation while those with light offences were being tried by a mobile court established by the taskforce.
The Taskforce Secretary said the closure of weekly markets and filling stations by the government had curtailed supplies of food and other essential services to the bandits.
Meanwhile, the Commissioner for Information Ibrahim Dosara has also announced additional measures taken by the state government to tighten the leakages giving lifeline to the bandits.
