Keiyo North Sub-County police boss Fredrick Ochieng said officers received confusing reports, which indicated that the intruders at Sing’ore Girls High School were gangsters.
“However, we were later told that boys from the neighbouring St Patrick’s Boys High School had sneaked into the compound with an intention of raping the girls,” said the police boss.
