Musa, along with another suspected bandit, Salmanu Isa, 18, were among other suspects paraded for various offences at Katsina Police Command headquarters.
He said, “I once saw that aircraft with fans on its head (helicopter) drop weapons for my boss while we were inside forest at Dinja.
“It was hovering and was very near ground. The man inside would drop the weapons for my boss who would now couple the weapons for our use.
“It is only my boss who would go and pick the weapons while we would be watching from where we stood.”
On further prodding, Musa said he had killed at least five people during their various operations, adding that he was paid N17,000 after each operation.
