Cape Town – Private security guards monitored the Cape Peninsula University of Technology's Cape Town campus on Monday, after a workshop at the engineering building was petrol bombed in the early hours and exams were disrupted during a protest.
No one was injured.
Stun grenades were fired to disperse protesting students who were unhappy with the insourcing process and the suspension of four students.However, not all students were on the same page. Some told News24 they did not want the protest to happen.
They said they had tried raising their concerns with the protesting group but felt they had no voice.
