Durban University of Technology's SRC calls for expulsion of Jews

The Durban University of Technology's student representative council has called for the expulsion of all Jewish students who do not support the Palestinian cause, according to a report.

The demand was sent to the university management, according to the Daily News newspaper.

The newspaper quoted SRC secretary Mqondisi Duma as saying: "As the SRC we had a meeting and analysed international politics. We took the decision that Jewish students, especially those who do not support the Palestinian struggle, should deregister."

The university's vice chancellor Prof Ahmed Bawa told the newspaper the demand was "totally unacceptable".
