“Some peers, 14 to 15 years of age went to Ugaga picnic and and fought each other. After the picnic, one of the boys went home and equipped himself with weapons and charm with a view to attack others.

When the boy who went to fortify himself came back, other boys including one of the victims discovered that the boy was with weapons and charm, so they started interrogating him.
