Alwan Ali-Hassan, the Managing Director of the Bank of Agriculture and one of the kidnapped victims of the Abuja-Kaduna train attack, has been released from the terrorists.
He was one of several passengers reported missing by their families.
The police have yet to confirm his release, but a top government official told the media that the Bank of Agriculture MD was released on Wednesday afternoon after being held captive for a week.
