The Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Ramhan Nansel, confirmed the incident to journalists.
He disclosed that the Emir was taken away from his palace which is located a few kilometres from the Mararraba main town of Karu Local Government Area on Sunday night by kidnappers alongside his wife.
He added that a combined Police team in collaboration with vigilante groups combed the surrounding bushes of the area after receiving a distress call but no trace of the abductees.
Efforts to rescue the Emir and his wife are ongoing as additional police personnel from the Police Tactical Team, Anti-Kidnapping Unit and others from the Karu Area Command have been deployed to the area.
