Pietermaritzburg - Former president Jacob Zuma’s pretrial hearing has been moved to next week Wednesday.
While Zuma’s team have not open stated their reasons for this, Independent Media understands that they accuse Downer of professional misconduct and bias. Details of why they want him out will be publicly known next week. In the long-mothballed trial, Zuma is accused of pocketing bribes from Durban businessman Schabir Shaik during the procurement of arms between 1998 and 1999.
Time for z783 to shut up. Why does the judiciary not man up?
I don't think there is anyone in SA that is shocked by this news
I don't care how old you are, wrong is not right.
That's an attempt to weaken the state's case.
No Mr Zuma some people are there to do their jobs, and he is doing his face him and do your time like a man, don't do the crime if you can't do the time
Feels like this one has been having pretrials for years now...
He probably knows too much for comfort. Zuma tried forcing BD to recuse before and failed.
