WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

Police arrested 28 University of Free State (UFS) students on Tuesday for contravening a court order.

Police spokesperson Superintendent Sam Makhele said they were taken into custody on the Bloemfontein campus after they disrupted classes.

“They were arrested after intimidating conduct which was prohibited by a court interdict.”

In terms of the interdict, students may not interfere with the activities of other students.

Makhele said the students were expected to appear in the Bloemfontein Magistrate’s Court on Wednesday.

The Bloemfontein campus of UFS has been experiencing tensions after a racist video surfaced last week.

It features black university employees on their knees eating food which had apparently been urinated on by a white student.

The short film depicts a mock initiation of five black staff members into hostel activities, and refers to the university’s diversity policy for campus residences announced in 2007.

Police maintained a presence on the campus on Tuesday.

Earlier on Tuesday, the university said it was compiling a charge sheet for internal disciplinary steps against two students over a racist video.

UFS spokesperson Anton Fisher said rector Frederick Fourie was in the process of appointing a disciplinary committee.

“When this charge sheet is finalised, it will be made available to the students’ legal representative.”

Fisher said a date for an internal disciplinary hearing would be arranged once the charge sheet was handed to the students’ lawyer.

The university’s lawyer informed the students’ legal team on Monday that the charge sheet was being drawn up.

Fisher said this was done in writing and no meeting took place between the lawyers of the two parties. – Sapa
