The gunmen arrived on motorcycles and were heavily armed, but they did not fire any shots during the abduction.
A security source confirmed the abduction, noting that the attackers carried out the operation quickly and precisely.
The family members present during the incident were unharmed as the gunmen focused solely on abducting the secretary.
Residents found the incident alarming, especially because there was no gunfire, and they voiced concerns about the growing boldness of criminals in rural areas.
Security agencies have launched a coordinated operation to rescue the victim and capture the suspects.
