EDUCATION activist Vanessa le Roux says she is seeking clarity after being told a court-related process may have been initiated against her, following a recent confrontation involving her son at Stellenbosch University.

Speaking to Cape Argus on Sunday, Le Roux said she was contacted on Friday by a detective who told her there was a court order against her, but needed more information. The detective, she said, only had her name and cellphone number and asked her to come to the station.

At the time, Le Roux said she did not recognise the name of the complainant.

"Not for once did the name ring a bell. My son was in class, so I had to wait for him," she said.
