Twenty five students were on Friday charged with damaging school property. The Njoro Boys High School students were accused of destroying classrooms and dormitories worth Sh200,000.

They were also charged with an alternative count of creating disturbance by throwing stones at other students. The court declined a request to have the students remanded at Njoro police station for three days so that their ages could be determined.
