First-year student Babalo Ndwayana decided to forgive the student who urinated on his belongings in a drunken state at Stellenbosch University. But many still believe that stronger repercussions are necessary amidst the racial tensions on campus.

, Ndwayana decided to be forgiving rather than vengeful, and did not lay criminal charges like he was advised to do.

“[My parents] are very upset. I tried to calm them down and [told them] they must not worry. My father said I must lay criminal charges, but I said to him it’s already enough now. He’s also someone’s child and the way [they] feel about what’s happening to me… This thing also traumatised him,” explained Ndwayana.

The unnamed perpetrator reportedly did apologise for “his behaviour in general” at an emergency house meeting after the incident was reported.But even though Ndwayana found it in himself to be forgiving, the apology did nothing to pacify the public’s rage. A mass of students gathered outside Huis Marais on Monday and demanded more severe repercussions.

The University of Stellenbosch proceeded to suspend the student, and publicly “condemned the destructive, hurtful and racist incident”. SU’s main priority is to provide an inclusive environment and maintain a safe student community where social cohesion is promoted. SU condemns the destructive, hurtful and racist incident in Huis Marais this weekend.The alleged perpetrator was suspended.
