TUT management has taken a very good decision, we dont need hooligans
in Institutions of higher learning, even the Anc and all Mdm
structures must expell this man.

Mbeki heckler expelledNov 19, 2010 1:23 PM |A Tshwane University of
Technology (TUT) student who disrupted a public lecture by former president
Thabo Mbeki in September has been expelled from the institution, says a
university spokesman.
TUT spokesman Gilbert Mokwatedi said that the disciplinary committee of
TUT's Student Judicial Services found student Sabelo Sono guilty after he
pleaded guilty to the three charges of intimidation, violation of dignity
and tarnishing TUT's image.
Sono stormed into TUT's Theunis Bester Hall on September 16 as Mbeki was
giving a public lecture on war and peace in Africa.
Sono, the treasurer of TUT's Pretoria campus student representative council,
shouted "sihamba no Zuma" (we are going with Zuma) and threw a banner at
Mbeki's feet before he was bundled out of the hall by security staff.
Mokwatedi said Sono pleaded not guilty to using abusive language and
intoxication. These charges were not pursued by the university.
"Mr Sono was found guilty and has been expelled from TUT for a period of
five years. He has five working days to lodge an appeal, should he decide to
do so."
He said Sono, who was studying towards a national diploma in information
technology, has five days to leave the campus and finalise his affairs at
the institution.
Police questioned Sono over the Mbeki incident and charged him with assault.
On September 23 National Prosecuting Authority spokesman advocate Mthunzi
Mhaga said the NPA had decided to withdraw the charges because there was "no
evidence amounting to a prosecutable offence".
Sono's phone was switched off and he could not immediately be reached for
comment.
