Mahikeng – The North West University (NWU) has suspended the former SRC president of its Mahikeng campus for three years for misconduct, the institution said on Friday.

Linda Benz Mabengwane was found guilty at a disciplinary hearing of five of the six charges brought against him, university spokesperson Koos Degenaar said in a statement on the NWU’s website.

The five charges were: disrupting the institution’s registration process at the campus in January; assaulting a fellow student; violating a court interdict; interfering with managerial functions; and engaging with the media on topics intended to bring the NWU into disrepute.

Mabengwane was informed of the university’s decision on Thursday, after the hearing.
