Saturday evening the UoN students staged a protest against death of one of their own. According to sources,the second year mechanical student had earlier been caught cheating on his exams and so in the wee hours of the night sneaked into the department’s HQ at the American Wing building just adjacent to the central police station.
Armed with vandalism tools he was determined to break in through to diffuse and clear all the evidence kept their that would have later be used against him. The university has strict rules on exams irregularities which would end in expulsion or years of suspension so its alleged that he wanted to exude himself from the disaster.
Unfortunately for him,the RSL security officers guarding the premise detected his movements and operations forcing him to attempt an escape and its at this point that things went berserk.
The watchmen shouted “thief” at him while trying to escape and according to shady information NE gathered from the institutions security department,the student was apprehended and booked into the central police station under OB number JOHN DOE ANOTHER 12345X. Later on according to reports from the police he was found dead in the cell in what the police say was a suicidal death. The student fraternity was not buying this explanation smelling a foul play into the whole scenario.
Serious questions and possibilities raised by the students, “Could it be that when the guard shouted
”thief!” a security officer fired from location Central Police Station?Could it be the security
nabbed the student and incapacitated him? Could he have been booked dead @ Central
Police for cover up?” Posed Allan,a fourth year engineering student in an interview with NE.
What followed was a retaliatory attack and protest at the police for “killing” one of there own,the students went on a rampage stoning motorists and the police,in the exchange one police officer was killed and reportedly four students were gunned down by police.
The incident has sparked a debate on as to wether the police were justified to use live bullets and not teargas and rubber bullets. Its unknown as to what action would be following next but the student body SONU leadership has condemned the action.
