The SA Prisoners Organisation for Human Rights has urged the correctional services department to also afford medical parole to ill prisoners in the same situation or worse off than former president Jacob Zuma.

Sapohr spokesperson Golden Miles Bhudu said the organisation “wholeheartedly welcomes” the release of Zuma on medical grounds. The department of correctional services said: “Medical parole placement for Mr Zuma means he will complete the remainder of the sentence in the system of community corrections, whereby he must comply with a specific set of conditions and will be subjected to supervision until his sentence expires.“Medical parole eligibility for Mr Zuma is impelled by a medical report received by the department of correctional services.

Bhudu said the organisation “has got no business and neither the capacity nor the brains to doubt the recommendations made by a medical practitioner”.
