Pietermaritzburg - The National Prosecuting Authority says it hopes former president Jacob Zuma's application for the recusal of lead prosecutor Billy Downer is not another delaying tactic.
The start of proceedings saw Downer approaching Judge Piet Koen about an application for his possible recusal. Downer said he and the NPA had yet to see the application.Judge Koen meanwhile said, according to his knowledge, a plea application would be filed on behalf of the accused, Zuma, explaining the basis of the application.
The section 106 plea application to be brought by Zuma deals with a prosecutor’s ability to prosecute an accused. Zuma's legal team is expected to thrash out, in an affidavit, why Downer should be recused from the case.NPA spokesperson Sipho Ngwema, who spoke outside the Pietermaritzburg Court following the adjournment, said ideally a section 106 plea application was brought when an accused wanted a prosecutor dismissed from a case.
He added the NPA hoped Zuma was not embarking on another delaying tactic in bringing forward this application.
