The suspects one Jennifer, 18 and Ruth Ali, 19, admitted to the offence upon interrogation by the police.

The suspects indicated that students in second cycle institutions mostly purchase the products to help them to study at night.
Police told DAILY GUIDE that Jenifer and Ruth admitted that they were aware of the consequences of their action.
