SRC Chairwoman Wendy Matshela said the safety of the students is compromised.
“Precious’ matter is not the first to have been reported but no police officer ever tried to come and listen to our challenges.
“We can’t allow this campus to be closed down because of criminals while the station is still there. The station must be the first to be closed," she said.
MEC Masemola said they will engage with the police to check on the reasons why they are not assisting the vulnerable.
Precious Ramabulana was reportedly raped and stabbed 52 times in her rental room on Sunday.
