2:43Now PlayingEight students were arrested after 16 girls were killed in a suspected arson attack at a Kenyan boarding school.
After interviews with students and staff and a forensic review of CCTV footage, the eight pupils at the school were identified as "persons of interest in connection with the planning and execution" of the fire, the National Police Service said in a statement.
Investigations are continuing into the exact cause of the blaze.
The fire in the early hours of Thursday morning at the Utumishi Girls Academy in Gilgil, about 120km (77 miles) north-west of capital city Nairobi, tore through the upper floor of a dormitory which had 135 bunk beds.
