Konduga mosque shooting

On the morning of 11 August 2013, a mass shooting occurred at a mosque in the town of Konduga, in Borno State, northeastern Nigeria. According to available reporting, 44 people were killed and another 22 were injured in the attack. The attack is believed to have been carried out by the jihadist group Boko Haram, which was active in the region during this period.

Konduga, located in Borno State, was repeatedly targeted by Boko Haram in the years following this shooting. The group's documented activities in the town include further massacres in January and February 2014, armed battles in 2014 and 2015, and suicide bombings in 2018 and 2019, reflecting a sustained pattern of violence in the area attributed to the group.

No individuals have been publicly named, charged, or convicted in connection with this specific attack based on currently available sourcing. As a result, this dossier does not identify any alleged perpetrators, consistent with the requirement that only charged or convicted individuals be named in connection with a crime.

This case remains documented primarily through a single detailed secondary source (Wikipedia), which itself references contemporaneous news coverage from the time of the attack. The scale of casualties and the attribution to Boko Haram reflect the consensus of reporting from the period, though independent verification of specific details beyond casualty figures and the general attribution has not been separately confirmed in the materials reviewed for this dossier.
