“They stole groceries, stationery, school uniforms, sport kit, stripped classes off electricity cables and other valuables.
“No one has been arrested but the investigations are still underway.
“We are calling on the residents who might have any information that could lead to the arrest of the perpetrators to come forward,” he says.
Manaka further urged the residents to refrain from buying suspected stolen goods because this is a criminal act and those found in possession of the goods will be arrested.

“They damaged the ceilings and stripped 11 classes of electrical connections.
“We were forced to install steel doors and burglar bars on the windows,” he says.
