Zuma can be taken into custody if can't prove illness: Legal expert - SABC News - Breaking news, special reports, world, business, sport coverage of all South African current events. Africa's news leader.

Legal expert, Ulrich Roux saysThis is after the Pietermaritzburg High Court issued a warrant of arrest for Zuma due to his failure to appear in court on Tuesday, expressing dissatisfaction with the contents of the medical certificate that Zuma’s legal team submitted.

The legal team says it will not challenge the issuing of the warrant of arrest – which has been stayed until May 6. Zuma and co-accused French arms manufacturer, Thales – are facing multiple charges including corruption, money laundering and racketeering. “The doctor who has diagnosed him, or allegedly diagnosed him, had not inserted his practice number or his registration number on the note. There were some corrections made on the note and the state, in my opinion, correctly pointed out to the court that we cannot believe the content of this note, we cannot take it as being original and accurate and the court must scrutinize this note. I think we need to provide clarity on the warrant of arrest. It was issued yesterday and not circulated.
