    "content": "and rape allegations at the university and relation to outlawed illegal groups. Kisii University distanced itself from any relationship to the Sungu Sungu vigilante group. In addition, regulations and university statutes have no provision for any association to such kind of groups. However, given that the students’ demonstrations were mainly outside the university causing mayhem to the peace loving citizens in the vicinity of the university, the intervention by the police to quell the demonstration was inevitable. As a result, about 250 students were arrested by the police in the process. They were later released without preferring charges against them after the intervention of the university management. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the university denied claims of rape, noting that no case had been documented on the same, either from the university dispensary, the nearby health facility or even with the police. Additionally, no student was killed during the fracas and the students had only been treated only on the effects of teargas thrown to them by the police. The university instituted investigations to establish the truth of the matter, with a view to taking appropriated corrective measures. On the suspension and disciplinary proceedings following the chaos, the University Senate had met and decided to suspend ring-leaders namely:- Mr. Jeff Ongoro, Mr. Peter Ndagi, Mr. Paul Irungu and Mr. Antony Tariton.
