CJP leaders’ bail hearing put off as magistrate cites threat to life

The bail hearing for the leaders of the Cape Peninsula University of Technology (CPUT) Student Representative Council (SRC) has been postponed due to security concerns. The magistrate cited a threat to his life and the safety of the court.

The leaders were arrested last week for public violence and damage to property during a protest at the university.

The case has been postponed to next week for further investigation.
