Former President Jacob Zuma’s corruption trial has been postponed until 17th of October. This is to allow the Constitutional Court to rule on his latest legal bid to remove Billy Downer as his prosecutor. Judge Piet Koen has ordered that IF the apex court dismisses Zuma’s “special plea” appeal bid – that the Arms Deal corruption trial will proceed on 7th of November, where the former president faces charges including fraud, corruption, money laundering and racketeering.
