“They applied for medical parole… I think that is at the beginning of August where they applied and we were directed to the relevant structures, within our structure we got health care and then we got the medical advisory parole, so we directed that to them.
“So they allocated a doctor to go and do an observation as they do in all instances, they have done an observation and based on their engagement and assessment … on the patient, recommendations were made to the medical parole advisory board and those were made… the board did not approve for medical parole because they indicated that he was in a stable condition,” said Fraser.
“What I need to indicate is that when the advisory board provided those recommendations I had then, as the head of the centre, who has the authority to decide, then reviewed the information available and then indicated that the conditions, based on the reports that we have require us to release him ,” he said.He pointed out that he was “the first person to be purged by the Zuma administration” in 2009 because they believed that he was a Thabo Mbeki man.
Fraser also categorically denied that he was behind the leaking of the so called spy tapes that forced the then acting head of the National Prosecuting Authority Advocate Mokotedi Mpshe, to drop the arms deal corruption charges against Zuma. The charges were later reinstated after the DA fought a long court battle, arguing that the decision was irrational.
Release Zuma before you go. That was the ,mandate from the ANC.
Just when I thought all hope was gone that was when I meet richardmaldona0 who made my little R8000 became something worth more. Now I don't have to depend on my paycheck. Can't thank you enough richardmaldona0

Wow wow wow.
Do you honestly think the stars on that man's shoulders came from nothing? He knows how to do he's job, he wouldn't release zuma without a valid reason..
