Police investigating arson after fire damages Mpumalanga school
JOHANNESBURG - A case of arson has been opened after a fire damaged parts of Duvha Combined School in EMalahleni, Mpumalanga, in the early hours of Tuesday, less than a week after two learners were expelled from the school for assaulting another learner, the education department said.
“We do not link the burning of the school with the expulsion of the learners, but we also cannot not rule out that possibility,” Zwane said. “It is a disturbing coincidence. The department is, however, encouraged that this development did not affect the ongoing March internal examinations at the school.”
