Kwale - A Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC) supervisor is recovering at home after being abducted and severely beaten by suspected Form Four candidates in Kinango Sub-County, Kwale County, following his refusal to allow cheating during the ongoing Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) examinations.

The supervisor had been assigned to oversee exams at Vingurugani Secondary School when he intercepted unauthorised materials that a teacher had smuggled into the examination room.

He confiscated the papers and secured them as evidence, but the materials were subsequently stolen from his locker.

He was then summoned to the Kinango education offices, where a quality assurance official allegedly pressured him to cooperate with the teachers involved. On Monday, he was offered KSh 50,000 to look the other way on the malpractice, an offer he firmly declined.

The assault took place on the evening of Wednesday, November 11.
