Five of the eight boys, who are also students at Mpraeso Senior High School, have been arrested in connection with the alleged sexual assault and are currently in custody at the Nkwatia Divisional Police Command.
The remaining three suspects are still at large, and efforts are ongoing to apprehend them as part of the ongoing investigation.
Efforts to speak directly with the headmaster, James Affadu, regarding the alleged incident have been unsuccessful.
However, in an audio recording intercepted by Onua News, the headmaster confirmed that the incident occurred on Sunday, October 6.
