Zuma is due to appear in the Pietermaritzburg high court on Tuesday on charges of corruption related to the arms deal

It remains to be seen whether former President Jacob Zuma will attend his arms deal corruption trial scheduled to be heard at the Pietermaritzburg high court on Tuesday as he is still in hospital.

Zuma, who was sentenced last month to a 15-month jail term for contempt of court, has been medically supervised by staff from the SA Military Health Services since his admission at the Estcourt Correctional Centre last month. Zuma’s brother Khanya told TimesLIVE this week that the family was not overly worried about Zuma being hospitalised “as he had “been unwell since he was poisoned” in 2014.

This is the second time that Zuma has temporarily been released from the prison since he began serving his sentence on July 8. Three weeks ago, he joined his family for the funeral of his brother Michael, in Nkandla, after he was granted compassionate leave. TimesLIVE reported this week that Carl Niehaus, a senior member of the #FreeJacobZuma campaign and of the so-called Radical Economic Transformation forces would be “embarking on several key programmes of action” after President Cyril Ramaphosa’s failure to act on the demands to release Zuma.

Is Concourt hatching up a plan to release him under house arrest to avoid embarrassment and save the justices faces for their blunder. It's okay, we are watching.

But ubaba doesn't need observation to change ZumaDiapers What about all that talk about him being fearless and he doesn't mind going to jail? Easy to talk from a place of comfort but now incontinent when placed on a cage lol GetWellPresZuma never! Rot in jail corrupt shit☻🐵

Zuma: Zoom Court infringes my rights. Court: Fine, prison vehicle will bring you. Zuma: Can’t I’m in hosspeetaal! Who cares. Five years latter still inside for various cases of contempt of court to avoid jail. Fine.

ConCourt issues directives to Zuma legal team and other parties on his jailingThe Jacob Zuma Foundation claims the former president did not receive a fair trial and his wellbeing was not considered when he was jailed. lisaCammpbell I really can't tell of anyone who can inspire individuals as you do. Your words are just as transparent as you are! Thank you for my earnings. They are now bowing to pressure from the FreePresidentZuma campaign. Their plan was to delay the verdict indefinitely. Zuma is not innocent and he was never. I don't feel sorry for him period. Thixo was George kog. The guy used to mock us when we held him accountable. This serves him right.

These ConCourt Judges are really corrupt, it is unbearable to watch Whatever the word of God says I am, I am. Let's confess who we are in Jesus:- I am more than a conqueror (Romans 8 :37) I am no longer condemned (Romans 8 :1) I am a child of God (John 1:12) Acts 17:28..In him we live, move &exist. Follow me for the word, i will follow 🔙. Please leave Zuma alone, he served on Robben Island , he is a tested soldier. 15 months is nothing , your zondo took this matter to the concourt in order to effect arrest. The rucusal application at the high court was delibarately ignored.
