Students at Rhodes University in South Africa have clashed with police in the ongoing nationwide protests against plans to increase fees.
A video of the confrontation has been shared on You Tube:
Police confront one of the students. She reacts furiously after being showed by one of the officers.
One student, in a red t-shirt, confronts the police and criticise their heavy-handed tactics
He says the students want the ruling ANC party to honour its 1994 promise of free education for all
He punches the air as he shouts the rallying cry “Amandla” and then the other students respond
The police apprehend him and drag him down towards the police van
More police officers join in carrying the student to the police van
The police then move forward to shoot rubber bullets to disperse the students
Undeterred one of the students walks casually across the line of fire
