A man who sued the University of Nairobi (UoN) for confiscating his degree certificate on claims he hacked the institution's computer system to print himself fake transcripts has been denied Sh500, 000 that had been awarded to him by the High Court.

The Court of Appeal's decision to deny Inganga Alfred Arunga the award followed an application by the UoN challenging the High Court's judgement.
