Accra, June 20, GNA – Fifty students of Tumu Senior High Technical School (SECTECH) have been dragged before the Tumu Magistrate Court over their alleged involvement in a demonstration that resulted in destruction of school property in May this year.
Students of the school on 23rd May rioted and destroyed valuable properties and threatened lives of the staff, which subsequently forced the Ghana Education Service to shut down the school indefinitely.

The students were alleged to have accused Mr Abu Raman Hadi and Mr Dominic Yaw Tunti and others for not allowing them to cheat during the West African Examination for senior high schools.
The court heard that out of the 50 accused students, 21 were present in court while 29 were absent of which 22 were not present because the police did not have enough information about them.
