The Kano State Police Command has arrested 11 students of Government Boarding Secondary School, Bichi, in connection with the killing of two fellow students.

 

The spokesperson for the command, Abdullahi Haruna, confirmed the arrests in a message to a popular Newspaper on Thursday.

 

Haruna said the students were being interrogated to determine their level of involvement in the incident.

 

“Eleven students were arrested over the incident and the investigation is ongoing to find out the level of their individual involvement,” he said.

 

He promised that the police would do everything possible to solve the students’ murders and prosecute all involved.
