Khutsong learners gather for a protest

November 01, 2007, 14:00

Khutsong learners west of Johannesburg are gathering at the local stadium for yet another protest march.

They are demanding the release of two teenage boys who were arrested for arson during violent protests three months ago.

The dozens of young activists, who are still in their school uniform, are planning to march to the local police station to deliver their memorandum of grievances.

The learners say the two teenagers have missed their exams.

Khutsong has been a hotbed of unrest since the Merafong Municipality was demarcated into the North West province.
