Last week during student-led pro-Palestine protests a student at Otago University was arrested.

Footage later posted by Student Justice for Palestine Otago showed property damage occurred when excessive force was used by campus security, not pro-Palestine students.

The group says campus security ignored student safety in an attempt to block protestors from staging a peaceful sit-in at the University clocktower.

Wire Host Caeden spoke to Student Justice for Palestine Otago spokesperson Liz about the footage of campus security using force against students, as well as why they were protesting in the first place.
