Nine vehicles set alight at UniZulu
Updated | By Lucky Khanyile
There has been more destruction of university property in the province.
This time, KZN police have confirmed that at least nine vehicles were set alight at the University of Zululand last night as unrest continues at universities across the country.
Late last week, two buildings were torched amid protests at UniZulu - which have been going on for over a month.
The police's Thulani Zwane says officers at the Mthunzini Police Station are investigating a case of arson.
"Yesterday around 10:00am it is alleged that these vehicles were set alight, together with the shelter belonging to the bus terminal. There has been no arrest made at this stage and the matter is under investigation," he said.
