Justice Majanja denied the suspects bond.

He ordered they be locked up at Kisii Main prisons until February 26 when he will rule on their bond application. 

The deceased was lured from her room where she was revising for last year's KCSE exams before she was killed.

Her body was found dumped in a fish pond near her home at Mariba village.

The body had visible injuries on her neck and thighs.
