Warrant of arrest issued for former president Jacob Zuma ZumaTrial

Judge Dhaya Pillay said the warrant is stayed until May 6 when the criminal proceedings against Zuma is expected to go back to court.

However the National Prosecuting Authority requested that the court issue as warrant of arrest as Zuma did not furnish proper medical evidence so they could"form a position" relating to his absence. Mantsha argued that Zuma's medical health was an issue of"national security" and that a sick note from the military hospital should suffice.She said it was standard practice in every court that if an accused is not in attendance and failed to produce a medical certificate, a warrant of arrest must be issued.

I hope this doesn't back fire on anyone. If its proven that Zuma is sick and all medical records show thwn its easy for Zuma to move on them and cry foul. Zuma's card now would be to prove that he is sick and then ask for another judge and get another court date.

Lol so you want to tell me that the former president is now a wanted 🤣🤣😂🤣😂😂🤣

AT LEAST AS A INDIAN YOU WERE FREE IN FOREIGN COUNTRY I CANNOT COMMENT CAUSE HE WENT TO ROBBEN ISLAND FOR ME FOR 10YRS NOW HE IS ROBBED YET AGAIN BY AN INDIAN

Serious? That's good..if it's true

Judge didnt have to go this length a medical certificate was produced and it shld suffice. But Zuma is a master of his misfortunes by playing all these cheap tricks - this guy was a moral campas of the Republic when he has non himself!

They must handcuff him

So says news papers... Bullshit journalists.

Yeah stayed until 6 May. It's actually a bodyguard of Zuma and will be relived from duty on the day of appearance that's if he appears. For now we can Corona akere bagolo?

Why an Indian judge is used when Jamnandas is Indian and he hate Zuma plus he is friends with some of the judges. She came here already having a judgment. Nxa engathi kusazoshuba emzansi if befuna ukusbona ukuthi sdinwa sfikephi abaqhubeke
