According to the Acting Director of Public Affairs at the university, Tefo Mangope the hearings started last week Thursday and they will continue for the rest of this week.

He explained that the disciplinary committee is expected to make recommendations to the Vice Chancellor, Bojosi Otlhogile to make the final decision on the matter.
