Former Wits SRC leader Mcebo Dlamini arrested

Yeah, I know how it works.



Sure, part-time and postgrad.

Nobody full-time and in res, that's positively weird.

And what is your axe, you trying to defend scumbags ?

I'm defending someone because I don't think it's unusual for someone to study at a later stage of their life? As much as you may hate the guy, it's not that weird. You seem to be the one getting defensive here...

This.

The guy might be a pos but his age is not the issue here unless you really dont want older people to study?
 
BS, this guy has been at varsity for years, he isn't somebody who started studying at an older age.

You guys are nuts, you are really clutching at straws here.
 
See the EFF influence again there... Mpofu making himself available.

What is more interesting is his son at Oxford, studying a Ph.D and who spectacularly failed to get the Rhodes statue removed at Oxford. His name is Sizwe Mpofu-Walsh.

Is this true?
 
Former Wits SRC President and student leader Mcebo Dlamini will remain in custody until his next court appearance tomorrow.

Dlamini, who is a vocal leader in the 'Fees Must Fall' protests, was arrested at Wits early on Sunday morning.

He appeared in the Johannesburg Magistrates Court this morning on several charges, but the matter has been postponed to tomorrow for a formal bail application.

The state has indicated that it will oppose bail.

Dlamini was taken back to the cells at the Cleveland Police Station.

He's objected to the postponement "because he's writing a test tomorrow"

tough titties.

What test? He's dedicated to stopping others writing tests, yet he wants to be allowed to go and write. He's either lying or being a hypocrite.
 
#FeesMustFall leader Mcebo Dlamini to remain in custody

Johannesburg - The case against #FeesMustFall leader and former Wits SRC president Mcebo Dlamini was postponed in the Johannesburg Magistrate's Court on Monday.

Prosecutor Steven Rubin said the case needed to be postponed to Tuesday so that Dlamini's address can be verified.

The court heard that Dlamini had provided police with his Wits University residence address.

Rubin said this address could not be accepted because the institution would be closing in a matter of weeks.

Dlamini's lawyer Mongezi Ntanga said he had provided his mother's address.

This address would be verified by police, Rubin told the court.

Dlamini would remain in custody at the Cleveland police station.

He faces charges of public violence, theft, malicious damage to property and assault.

Calm

Dlamini seemed calm while standing at the dock on Monday morning. He was dressed in a green hoodie with a black and white keffiyeh around his neck. He occasionally looked back into the public gallery, in search of familiar faces.

Ntanga told the court that Dlamini had to be released because he was writing an exam on Tuesday.

Magistrate B Roux refused his request after Rubin said Dlamini had not attended most of his classes.

Roux then asked if Dlamini had experienced any problems while in custody. He was told by Dlamini's lawyer that he could not remain in police cells because he has asthma.

Roux said Dlamini needed to consult with his lawyers to receive medication.

Outside the courtroom, at least 50 students remained outside awaiting Dlamini's release. They left soon after Dlamini was taken back to the court's holding cells.

Dlamini was arrested in the early hours of Sunday morning at his residence at Wits University.

The struggle continues - Mcebo Dlamini

Johannesburg - Students must continue to fight for free education, former Wits University SRC president and Fees Must Fall leader Mcebo Dlamini said while seated in the court dock awaiting his bail hearing on Tuesday.

Dlamini said he was happy that he had been arrested, and not other student protesters.

"I am happy it was me who went in than students. As a leader, you have to lead by example."

He urged students to continue with protests for free education in their lifetime, saying this was a "genuine call".

Dlamini said his arrest would not deter him from leading the Fees Must Fall movement.

He blamed the police for his arrest, saying it was part of its agenda to censor students.

"We are not condoning violence. I am not guilty. There is no amount of police brutality or other methods they may use to try and censor us or delegitimatise us to probably try to attack the dignity and our integrity, students must continue with the fight... The struggle continues."

Dlamini seemed calm while seated in the dock, even smiling at journalists.

He was dressed in a navy Puma hoodie with a black and white keffiyeh around his neck.

He faces charges of public violence, theft, malicious damage to property and assault.

Speaking of that clown - he was all vocal at the beginning of the protest but is deathly quiet now.

I wonder who told him to shut his mouth and behave himself.
