Higher Education Minister Blade Nzimande is appealing for information that may lead to the arrest of those responsible for the killing of students.
Earlier this week some students residing off-campus were attacked by robbers demanding cellphones and laptops. Two students were killed and a third died later in hospital.
Two of the victims were studying at Free State University, while the third was a Maluti TVET College student.
University management has extended its deepest condolences to the families, relatives, and friends of those who lost their lives.
