Students of Itierio Boys High School burnt seven dormitories, including their property, on Saturday night. It is alleged that the students went on the rampage after they were denied a chance to watch the ongoing European Football tournament. The students also raided the principal’s office, the school canteen as well as a laboratory at the neighbouring Itierio Girls school where they left a trail of destruction. Following the arson attack, over 850 students were forced to spend the night in hiding, sending parents in panic.
