Army med students cuffed after 'sex orgy'

Scores of army medical students clashed with military police (MP) during early-morning raids following drunken sex orgies held at defence force barracks in Thaba Tshwane.

During the clashes, which forced the MP to call in help from the Pretoria Flying Squad and surrounding city police stations, defence force members were stoned with bottles, furniture and other objects as they desperately tried to restore order.

More than 100 students barricaded roads within the Military Health Training Formation compound in Thaba Tshwane with tables, dustbins and chairs as they partied through the early hours of on Sunday morning.

MPs who tried to storm the three barracks were forced to retreat by students armed with fire extinguishers and broken furniture.

The students had taken control of strategic positions such as stairwells and passageways.

They were eventually overcome when the SAPS stormed the barracks.

Police armed with assault rifles, along with their military counterparts, battled for nearly two hours to restore order, kicking down doors and dragging the occupants from their beds and rooms.

Those who tried to resist by barricading themselves inside their rooms with upturned beds and closets were handcuffed and dragged kicking and screaming to awaiting police vehicles.

They were then carted away to the SANDF's nearby MP compound.

'It is a complete and utter disgrace'
It is believed that many of the students smuggled girlfriends and boyfriends, most of whom are not members of the SANDF, into the compound and barracks in the back of cars and bakkies, which apparently were also loaded with hundreds of bottles of alcohol.

The stench of alcohol permeated the passages as police picked their way through the glass-littered corridors.

As police stormed the barracks, several students tried to escape by jumping from the windows of their rooms.

Police, however, managed to stop them - handcuffing them before marching them to awaiting police vans.

An MP member, who asked not to be identified, said it had been chaos.

"They were throwing bottles at us as well as pieces of furniture and appliances such as radios every time we tried to enter the compound.

"Our biggest fear was that they would try to set the building alight.

"They were well organised with several standing guard at entrances to raise the alarm when we came near.

"I have never seen anything like this. It is a complete and utter disgrace," the MP said.

SANDF spokesperson Colonel Louis Kirstein confirmed that there was a "social gathering" held after hours without permission from the military authorities.

"When it was discovered, the officer on duty called in the MP to quell the disturbance and restore order.

"When the MP could not regain control, the SAPS was called in to come and assist," he said.

Kirstein said that 10 students were arrested and detained by the MP.

"The case is under investigation," he said.

Police confirmed the incident, saying they had helped to restore order by clearing the barracks and arresting the "troublemakers".

Nice, great discipline from our soldiers.
 
The army had to call in the police ?? Is it not suppose to be the other way round ? We have a Defence Force who can not defend themselves against students.

I think there is a difference in some fun and by comparison a totally incompetent army. But yeah a fun..ny story indeed. So did anyone that night get a quick one? I doubt. :D
 
LOL, I was an instructor there a long time ago. I left and part of it was due to the lack of discipline amongst the troops.

Shortly before I left I was charged with behaviour unbecoming a Non Commissioned Officer. What did I do? I shouted at troops. What did I shout? Form up!!! Why were we charged? Some high ranking officers daughter complained to daddy (maybe I should have said please).

Cost me R50 in penalties or face 21 days extra dutys.

This orgy is just one incident in many that happened / happens (I presume) on a regular basis.
 
off to army

sounds like a pretty awesome place :)

im glad to see they where well organised means they are being trained well haha
