'Dead' former Thales boss and Zuma trial witness Alain Thétard found alive in Europe

Even though former president Jacob Zuma's legal team told the KwaZulu-Natal High Court in Pietermaritzburg this week that a key witness and co-conspirator in the alleged corruption that led to him being charged was dead, investigators have found him in Europe.

In 2005, the KwaZulu-Natal High Court in Durban found Shaik guilty of fraud and corruption and sentenced him to an effective 15 years behind bars. He was released on medical parole after serving a few years in prison. According to the encrypted fax, Thétard had devised the code -"I see the Eiffel Tower lights are shining today".New evidence

In this affidavit, he changed his tune, saying he had only written the fax as a record of his own thoughts and crumpled it up and threw it away.

CowansView I think the judges should refer Zuma's Advocate to relevant society because of lying. JZ did not himself pronounce on the 'death of witnesses '. Their unethical defence demands a strong rebuke from the presiding judges
