EFF denies responsibility for UJ arson attack

 

 

TMG Digital, The Times, Johannesburg, 16 May 2016

 

The Economic Freedom Fighters students organisation at the University of
Johannesburg says it was not responsible for an arson attack at the
university in the early hours of Monday which caused damage estimated at
about R100 million.

 

1,000 seat auditorium

 

The university said arsonists firebombed a 1,000 seat auditorium at its
Auckland Park campus at around 2am after breaking into the building. Also
destroyed were computer laboratories, including equipment used for career
assessment and guidance, the university said in a statement.

 

"We would like to say the EFF condemns such acts, we would also like to
condemn the utterances of the UJ SRC president who went on Jacaranda FM
today to say the EFF is behind this," said EFF UJ students chairperson
Tshireletso Mati.

 

"As the EFF every time we have issues of students or workers we resolve to
legal and robust engagement with management... Since the presence of
'bouncers' on campus this is the second incident of this nature on our
campuses. How is it possible that there were bouncers on campus but they
didn't see or hear anything? The bouncers could be responsible for this.."
added Mati.

 

The university said those responsible for the fire bomb attack were not UJ
students.
