Boko Haram decapitates Nigerian loggers: local militia

‘Boko Haram extremists have killed three loggers near a remote village in Nigeria’s restive northeast Borno state, local militia assisting the military to fight the extremist group told AFP Wednesday.
“The decapitated bodies of the three loggers were found by the roadside,” on Monday, said local vigilante Ibrahim Liman in Maiduguri, the state capital.
“Decapitation is a Boko Haram hallmark,” he added.
Boko Haram terrorists have increasingly targeted loggers in their armed campaign, accusing them of spying and passing information to the military and the local militia fighting them, Liman said.
The latest victims were seized with their truckload of firewood near Aisa-Wulomari village, 40 kilometers (25 miles) from Maiduguri, said Musa Ari, another member of the local militia who gave a similar toll.’
