Zuma is facing the charges alongside the French arms-company, Thales.

Former SAA board chairperson Dudu Myeni’s advocate Nqabayethu Buthelezi is now part of the Zuma legal team, alongside Thabani Masuke, who resigned with Zuma’s former lawyers three weeks ago, but has now returned to represent him.

Advocate Barry Roux will represent Thales in court.

Zuma’s advocate confirms that he will plead “not guilty” once case gets under way.
