Utumishi Girls Academy murder suspects to remain in custody until September

Eight minors from Utumishi Girls Academy will remain in custody for at least two more months after the High Court deferred its ruling on their bail application to September 22. The eight minors, who appeared in court facing 16 counts of murder linked to the deaths of their fellow students, pleaded not guilty to all charges. While presiding over the case, High Court Judge Diana Kavedza said more time was needed to allow probation officers to prepare comprehensive pre-bail reports. Citizen TV’s Ben Kirui has more.
