Security personnel drawn from Malava sub county are holding a principal phone after a tip off of a possible exam malpractice was reported in her school.
Principal Samitsi girls mobile phone was confiscated after the investigators, responding on a lead, stormed the school to unravel the ongoing rumours of exam cheating that was also doing rounds on social media platforms.
It was alleged that there was an ongoing exam leakage at the school that led in the subcounty in the 2023 Kenya certificate of secondary education amid claims of exam cheating being peddled around by a section of principals and the public as well.
The detectives who arrived at the school unannounced found no tangible evidence to link the school to the malpractice but highly doubted the manner in which the principal was shaken and unease prompting them to poke more holes in any possible available loophole.
Their investigations however led them to the principals mobile handset which upon being perused it indicated an incoming call just before they landed at the institution, throwing a spanner into the works if it was a warning signal for the principal to put her house in order before the un expected visitors arrived.
Sources within the security details said despite them not being able to find any tangible evidence, the manner of reaction from the principal and the phone call was suspicious enough to state that all was not well at the scene forcing them to retain her phone for further screening.
It further stated that they suspect the received phone call on the principal’s phone was a warning call to the principal of their arrival hence he should quickly switch to normalcy.
They however assured the public that they will unravel the allegations soon so as to make it public if there was any exam cheating or not.
