Police in Mwingi, Kitui County, have arrested a colleague who is said to have stabbed a school bursar in a row over school fees.

Mwingi Central OCPD Peter Mutuma said Haji Boru on Monday went to Mwingi Boys Secondary School, where his son studied, and claimed a cash refund of extra money that had been paid through the Constituency Development Fund (CDF).

Chaos broke after the bursar, identified as Alex Mwanzia, informed Mr. Boru that the money could only be transferred to his son’s college fees account.

The officer reportedly forked out a knife and stabbed the accounts controller near his left armpit. He is currently admitted at a local private hospital as he awaits to record a police statement.

Boru is meanwhile held at the Mwingi Police Station awaiting arraignment.
