— EWN Reporter November 22, 2019 Last month, he failed to have charges quashed by the Pietermaritzburg High Court. Mantsha said they wanted to take that decision to the Supreme Court of Appeal because Zuma would be prosecuted out of line with the law if the matter proceeded. “The issue today is whether this country should tolerate prosecutions, which are conducted inconsistently with the Constitution, inconsistent with the law.
