"We demand the relevant stakeholders to look at this issue and find an amicable solution for students who are residing off-campus.
"They must talk to traditional leadership, the South African Police Service to intervene even the municipality. Students are being mugged and robbed by criminals."
Meanwhile, UniZulu management suspended the academic programme on Monday after a mob threatened to burn university property.
