Arriving in court, FeesMustFall activist Kanya Cekeshe raised his fist halfway to the gallery, which was filled by Economic Freedom Fighters and EFF student members, as well as his family.

last year that Cekeshe was caught on CCTV footage bending down next to a police car trying to light a match — seemingly to burn the car.The state is opposing bail because it says it would be premature for the court to decide on the issue before the petition in the high court has been decided.

He also added that Cekeshe was not a flight risk when he was given bail after he was sentenced and before his conviction, and he is still not a flight risk if he were to be given bail. Addressing the party’s supporters after court was adjourned, Ndlozi said Cekeshe was not a criminal and should not be locked up like one.

The #FeesMustFall protest gained popular attention in 2015 at Wits University and spread to other universities across the country. The protest intensified in 2016.
