Fees Must Fall leaders plead for release of last remaining student in jail
Durban - A group of Fees Must Fall leaders in Durban are appealing to authorities to grant bail to a fellow leader who was arrested two months ago during protests.
Bonginkosi Khanyile has been behind bars since September 27 and the movement says he is now the only student countrywide who hasn't been granted bail following the most recent wave of protests.
He has been charged with public violence, gathering illegally and inciting violence.
Khanyile last appeared in the Durban Magistrate's Court in November and is expected to appear there again on Monday.
Student leaders on Friday called for his release from custody ahead of Monday's appearance.
