The court found, earlier this week, that Zuma’s release from jail on medical parole was unlawful and that he must return to prison.

JOHANNESBURG - The Jacob Zuma Foundation says the Supreme Court of Appeal's decision on which jail the former president should go to is judicial overreach.

This comes after the SCA - earlier this week, that Zuma’s release from jail on medical parole was unlawful and that he must return to prison.However, what happens next will be up to the National Commissioner of Correctional Services - with the SCA finding it is not for the court to decide whether the time he spent on medical parole - though unlawful - should count as time served.

Last December, the Pretoria High Court ruled that the less than two months Zuma had spent on medical parole did not count towards his prison term. The matter relates to a 15-month jail term handed down to Zuma after he was found guilty of contempt of court for refusing to testify before the State Capture Commission of Inquiry.“The foundation is very concerned that there is an overreach at play, that the Supreme Court of Appeal is even deciding which jail president Zuma should go to.
