Lectures were suspended on Monday following protests by students who owed the university money and demanded to be registered.


MUT spokesman Len Mzimela said on Monday an agreement had been reached with students owing more than R10,000 that they would be registered if they entered into negotiations on their outstanding debt.


Those protesting were those who had refused to negotiate with the university.


There were several security officers on the campus in riot gear. They wore helmets and carried truncheons and shields. Some were armed with weapons that could fire rubber bullets and tear gas.
