Suspect had been evicted from the university residence before the incident
THE alleged rape of a 23-year-old woman by a fellow student at a residence in Observatory, has left the Cape Peninsula University of Technology (CPUT) community devastated and calling for swift, decisive action against the suspect.
Students and faculty were left outraged as the 24-year-old suspect was arrested shortly after the incident at the university's Catsville residence over the weekend.
The suspect made an appearance at the Cape Town Magistrates' Court yesterday where the matter was postponed for its formal bail application, which is set to begin on October 27.
National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) spokesperson, Eric Ntabazalila, confirmed that the suspect made his first appearance.
As his court proceedings were underway, emotions were still running high as students gathered at the District Six campus, calling for bail to be denied bail and demanded accountability from both the accused and CPUT.
