This remark, posted on Twitter by a user claiming to be a student representative council secretary-general at the University of the Western Cape (UWC), is being investigated by the university. This was announced by UWC council chairperson Yasmin Forbes on Tuesday afternoon.

It is believed that the fire started near Rhodes Memorial, on the northern flank of Table Mountain, on Sunday morning.
