“Thinking it was money, they demanded she hands over the bulk of the wrapped papers to them and threatened to shoot her. They were told it was not money but they would not listen. They snatched the papers and disappeared into thin air,” said the source.

The ensuing commotion made staff and students who were waiting to write the exams, scamper for safety, which made parents rush to the school thinking it was bandits that came to kidnap the students.
