The Student Representative Council of the University of the North West have welcomed a probe by the Higher Education Transformation Net-Work to call Minister of higher education and training into the investigation of a 2012 drowning of Thabang Mokhoang at the Potch Campus in a pool.

HNET said they have a statement made by former security guards at the UNW about the incident, and the Minister called on the HAWKS to investigate.

NWU SRC President Rapeleng Mathsediso said that as the SRC they respect the decision of the council of the NWU to appoint a task team that investigated the case of the drowned student in 2012.

“We are of the view that the current report raises more eyebrows and leaves much to be desired, therefore we want this matter to be put to rest once and for all, in an amicable way so that will also heal the souls of the family of the student in question” Matshediso added.
