Police spokesman Captain Johan Rheeder said a case of arson was being investigated after a bag of stones was thrown through the glass door of the procurement building on Saturday night, and two petrol bombs set off inside.
Graffiti on the walls of the building carried the “FeesMustFall” slogan, as well as demands for “100% free education”, “ANC must fall” and “Zuma must fall”.
When The Herald visited the south campus yesterday, the scene was cordoned off with police tape and several campus security vehicles and guards were present.
Blue spray-painted profanities such as “f**k you” were still visible on the walls.
Inside the building the damage was extensive, with the walls of the foyer area blackened, photographs hanging on the walls destroyed and a glass table smashed.
