NPS defends dismissal of 18 pregnant police recruits amid backlash. [File, Standard]
The National Police Service (NPS) has defended the dismissal of 18 female recruits at the National Police College, Kiganjo, who tested positive for pregnancy.
In a statement, NPS said the decision was based on medical fitness requirements and not disciplinary action, amid public criticism and allegations of fraternisation.
According to NPS, no recruit conceived while in training, dismissing allegations linking the pregnancies to misconduct within the college.
