CPUT sends students home after violent protests

The Cape Peninsula University of Technology says it’s been left with no choice but to shut its campuses.

It’s ordered students to vacate all residences by 4 pm on Friday.

Three buildings and two vehicles have been torched this week.

Management says even though it’s obtained a court order against protesting students, the violence has escalated.
