KWASU: Police Arrest Four Students Over Death Of Peer

Four students have been arrested in connection with the death of a fellow student at the Kwara State University (KWASU) community in Malete, Moro local government area.

The arrest, which took place on Wednesday, follows an altercation that occurred penultimate week at one of the private hostels located off the university premises.

According to reports from Vanguard, the conflict erupted after the deceased student was caught filming the four suspects without their permission.

The victim, whose identity remains undisclosed, was allegedly recording a private discussion among the students when one of them noticed his actions.
