The lawyers of former President Jacob Zuma and his foundation have expressed doubt that the ex-president will get justice when his arms deal corruption trial finally gets under way.

Durban - The lawyers of former president Jacob Zuma and his foundation have expressed doubt their client will get justice when his arms deal corruption trial finally gets under way.

Hot under the collar, the foundation said the most disturbing aspect about this was the fact the NPA’s lead prosecutor in the case, Advocate Billy Downer,SC had not only sought to negotiate the allocation of a trial date in 2021 but had also discussed the merits of the case with Judge Jappie.

However, some judiciary critics said Zuma stood no chance of successfully challenging the misconduct in any court.

The only unbiased media in SA, the only media that lives up to its name of being independent, other media houses still haven't said anything on this but if Zuma had been the one to ask for a postponement/have private convos with judges, SA would be up in arms. Great job IOL ✊🏾🙏🏾

Isukile 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Don't expose yourself,don't mislead.

Thank you IOL, others are busy with NDZ and Mazzotti
