The kakamega police have today arrested a group of 12 Students in Kakamega county for planning to commit an arson attack on their school which is regarded as government property.
The students are reportedly from Ingotse Boys Secondary in Navakholo, Kakamega. They were arrested and taken into custody at Navakholo police station over the arson charges.
The area OCPDRichard Omanga stated that the students were arrested with five litres of petrol inside the school's dormitories.
