Warrant of arrest issued for former president Jacob Zuma ZumaTrial

Judge Dhaya Pillay said the warrant is stayed until May 6 when Zuma's criminal matter is expected to go back to court.

However, the National Prosecuting Authority requested that the court issue a warrant of arrest as Zuma did not furnish proper medical evidence so they could “form a position” relating to his absence. Mantsha argued that Zuma's medical health was an issue of “national security” and that a sick note from the military hospital should suffice.She said it was standard practice in every court that if an accused is not in attendance and failed to produce a medical certificate, a warrant of arrest must be issued.
