Top story | Failure to indict Jacob Zuma ‘violated justice’
The only victim of the state’s failure to charge former president Jacob Zuma with corruption 15 years ago was the"rule of law" as he would have been convicted if tried with his former financial adviser Schabir Shaik, his prosecutors say.
Confidential National Prosecuting Authority documentation that was submitted to the courts with the state’s papers reveals the prosecutors were not convinced by arguments that Zuma did not intend to act corruptly when he signed a"revolving loan agreement" with Shaik, through which he received millions of rand.

The Real Rogue Unit : Jacob Zuma and his State [Capture] Security Agency’s nine wasted years of impunityThe high-level review panel report on the State Security Agency’s (SSA) illicit activities during the Zuma years is awash with examples of politically-motivated operations, corruption and the spy agency’s general disregard for the rule of law.
