A form four student from Gathiruini Boys Secondary School in Kiambu County lost his life after he was lynched by girls from a neighbouring girls school.

According to the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) reports the student who was in the company of five others sneaked out of their school and crept into a girls dormitory at Komothai Girls Secondary School, at around 4 am on Thursday, 21st October.

“The form four student had together with five others sneaked out of their school and crept into a girls dormitory at Komothai girls secondary school, at around 4 am today. They had under the cover of darkness tiptoed into Phoeb House for an unknown mission, before they were spotted by some girls who immediately raised alarm, attracting the whole school.

“The school’s guards, teachers and students all rushed towards the dormitory to find out what was happening. On sensing danger, five of the boys managed to trace their way back to their school while the deceased was cornered by the angry students and staff,” the DCI said.

After being cornered, the angry students and staff attacked the 17-year-old candidate, leaving him with life-threatening injuries. He was rushed to Kigoma level IV hospital, but unfortunately succumbed to his injuries.

The Crime scene detectives later visited the scene and recovered planks of wood suspected to have been used to assault the suspect.

The DCI has warned the public against taking the law into their own hands regardless of what the suspect has done.

“We wish to caution members of the public to desist from taking the law into their own hands and accord suspects the opportunity to face justice in a court of law,” said the DCI.
