In a shocking incident that has rocked the University of Venda (Univen) community, a first-year female student was stabbed to death in an off-campus residence, allegedly by her boyfriend, another student at the institution.
The 20-year-old victim, who was pursuing a Bachelor of Arts degree in language practice, was found with multiple stab wounds to her upper body. The suspect, a 20-year-old second-year Bachelor of Environmental Sciences student, was arrested for murder and is currently under police guard in a medical facility after injuring himself while attempting to flee.
According to eyewitness accounts and university statements, the couple entered their shared residence in good spirits on Friday afternoon, showing no visible signs of distress or conflict.
However, just minutes later, screams and loud noises emanated from their locked room, alerting nearby residents and prompting a swift response from campus security. Upon forcing entry into the room, security personnel discovered the young woman lying in a pool of blood, unresponsive and later declared dead at the scene. Two knives believed to have been used in the attack were recovered from the room.
In a desperate bid to escape, the suspect reportedly jumped from the second floor of the building, sustaining injuries in the process. He was immediately apprehended by authorities and taken into custody.
