Six Maranda Boys High School students who were detained at Bondo police cells after being linked to the fire incident at one of the school’s dormitory have been released by a Bondo Law Court.
The Principal Magistrate John Paul Nandi gave an order setting the six students free after the office of the Director of Criminal Investigations (DCI) testified to court that their two weeks investigations did not find anything linking the suspects to the fire incidents that happened early November.
Nandi ordered the students to go back to school and learn after their lawyer Felix Oketch successfully defended them at the court.
The magistrate, while closing the file gave an order to Maranda High School administration to re-admit the six students immediately.
Advocate Oketch commended the DCI for facilitating speedy investigations since the parents and the students had already suffered emotional torture.
He prayed that the learning institution should protect the students from possible subjection to ridicule following the inferno that left a nearly 200 students capacity dormitory turning to ashes.
