About hundred Walter Sisulu University students are demonstrating outside the Mthatha Magistrate’s Court where five fellow students are due to appear for killing another student last week.

A sixth-year medical student Lwando Mantshontsho was murdered at his Atlantla residence at the Nelson Mandela Drive site on Friday morning.

His lifeless body was found in a pool of blood with multi stab wounds on his upper body.

His alleged killers handed themselves to the police over the weekend.

Police spokesperson Captain Dineo Koena said the students are facing charges of murder, assault with intent to do grievous bodily harm and malicious damage to property.
