In his ConCourt application, Zuma and his legal team argued that his jailing for 15 months at the Estcourt prison for contempt of the same court which had defied its instruction to appear before the State Capture Commission, was unlawful.
Later, the court asked all parties involved to file supplementary affidavits and urge whether Zuma’s jailing violated international law or not. Zuma’s lawyers urged that a litany of international laws were violated and asked the court to free him. Meanwhile, Zondo has since applied to the North Gauteng High Court to have the life span of the State Capture Commission which chairs, extended from September 31 to December 31 this year.
“I submit that it is in the public interest that this Honourable Court grants the extension sought in this application so that the Commission may complete its work properly and submit its report to the President. If the above Honourable Court were to refuse to extend the Commission’s term of office, the Commission’s work would end without the report that needs to be submitted to the President,” he said in court papers.
We are patiently waiting for the judgement
