The University of the
Western Cape has submitted an affidavit in support of a bail
application by 25 students who were arrested last week.
The students are expected to make
another appearance later this week to apply for bail in the Bellville
Magistrates court.
They were taken into custody during chaotic protests against fee
hikes. The University of the Western Cape has requested
that the National Prosecuting Authority speeds up the processing of the
arrested students' bail hearing.
UWC spokesperson Luthando Tyhalibongo
confirmed management’s support for bail being granted to the arrested students.
