Bloemfontein - Judge Loyiso Mzana today warned the 20 students from the University of the Free (UFS) who were arrested yesterday for illegal gathering on the Bloemfontein Campus, to stay away from illegal protests.


The students were released on free bail with conditions. 

The conditions include, they must arrive at court on every set court date, they may not commit any other offence until then, and they have to inform their legal representative should they leave the Bloemfontein area. 

The defence argued that the accused should be released on free bail as they are still students with no form of income. 

They need to be back in court on November 3.
