Kisii University students have raised concern over increased insecurity in the region after one of their own was robbed on the weekend.
It is alleged that a gang of 3 armed men forced their way into the room of the male student and took away with them, his phone, laptop and some Sh800.
They say cases of students being robbed by the locals are on the increase and they now want action to be taken.
"It was around 9 am when I was going for a short call and on opening my door, they forced me in and told me to remain silent less they would stab me," said the student.
"I yielded to their demands and they took away with my laptop, phone and money,” he lamented.
He hopes the situation will be handled soon. The landlord had told him to record a statement. The students now want security beefed up.
The student was reportedly robbed at Wisdom Estate in Manoti area.
