Cape Town
The former chairman of the University of the Western Cape council, Brian Williams, has gone to court to challenge his removal.
Williams lodged an application at the Western Cape High Court last week, claiming that the decision the council took at a special meeting on September 12 to permanently remove him as chairman was unlawful.
The university said on Monday that it had received the application filed by Williams, who is still a council member.
“The university council is seeking legal counsel on the matter,” said spokesman Luthando Tyhalibongo.
