More than 50 youths have been arrested for reporting to the KDF Recruits Training School in Eldoret with fake documents.

The 57, who are being held at the Eldoret Police Station were found with bogus admission letters.

“We do not understand how the suspects received admission letters yet they did not participate in the recruitment,”
