'Students who were serving in the UKZN Westville SRC are out of office and are non-SRC members until further notice.'
At the time of the protests, UKZN's acting executive director of corporate relations, Normah Zondo, said the protest action on Westville campus was led by EFF students who had raised grievances outside the formal agreement reached between management and the SRC following two days of deliberations.
At the meeting last week, a decision was taken by the disciplinary tribunal to suspend the WCRC with immediate effect, pending an investigation. “Once this investigation is concluded, the disciplinary tribunal will report back to the SRC for a sentence determination or the review of the decision by the SRC executive to suspend the Westville CRC,” said Hlongwane.
“In short, students who were serving in the Westville SRC are out of office and are non-SRC members until further notice.”The university’s management confirmed that the decision to suspend the SRC had been taken by the central SRC. Pending a verdict on the matter, members of the central SRC will assist with student issues and grievances at the Westville campus.
