Lectures resume peacefully at KZN campuses
Calm has returned to most university campuses across the province.
However, there's still a strong police presence at the UKZN Westville campus - following unrest and several arrests there, yesterday.
Nine students were arrested at the Oval residence. However, police say seven of the nine students arrested there yesterday, were not UKZN students.
