A student from Moi Girls High School who allegedly started the tragic fire that left nine of her colleagues dead was on Wednesday arraigned in court.

The form 1 student has been widely discussed in the media after investigators linked her to the arson attack. However, her identity has remained anonymous.

After appearing at a Nairobi Court on Wednesday afternoon, police detectives were allowed to hold the suspect for a further one week pending completion of the investigations.

The court, however, warned members of the public from revealing the identity of the minors.

The press is also prohibited from publishing images that would expose the minor to stigma.

Here is a photo of the suspect, the face is hidden in line with the regulations and ethics code for coverage of minors.
