Fifteen suspects arrested in connection with the murders and attempted murders at the University of Fort Hare (UFH) are expected to appear in court on Tuesday in the Eastern Cape.
Police said arrests were made in different provinces following investigations by the National Task Team established to probe the attacks and killings.
Vice-Chancellor Sakhela Buhlungu’s bodyguard was killed in what is believed to have been a hit in 2023.
These recent arrests bring the number of accused in the case to 25.
Police spokesperson Athlenda Mathe said: “The team has been hard at work in getting to the bottom of who is behind fraud, corruption, and the murders at the university.
“They will continue to investigate and hunt those who are found to have had a hand in any wrongdoing.”
