Zuma to apply for leave to appeal the dismissal of his special plea - SABC News - Breaking news, special reports, world, business, sport coverage of all South African current events. Africa's news leader.

Former President Jacob Zuma will be back in the High Court in Pietermaritzburg later on Monday morning.

This time Zuma will apply for leave to appeal after losing in his bid to have the lead prosecutor in his arms deal case Billy Downer recuse himself. Zuma claims the prosecutors are biased and conspiring against him. Judge Piet Koen dismissed Zuma’s plea, in which he asked for the recusal of advocate Downer in October last year, and set April the 11th as the trial date. Zuma filed the plea under a Section of the Criminal Procedure Act.

The Jacob Zuma Foundation’s spokesperson Mzwanele Manyi says Monday’s application will be in three parts. “One doesn’t need to be a lawyer to understand that you cannot get a fair trial if the prosecutor is compromised so President Zuma is asking leave to appeal the judgment of Judge Koen which has let Downer off the hook. Secondly President Zuma will be moving a separate application for the court to receive new evidence that President laid new charges against Downer at the Pietermaritzburg Police station.

How is it even possible that for soo many years ⏳&months at a time Zuma has been using all kinds of ruses,lies & excuses to dodge the courts & honestly face up to 683 charges💰⁉He has been abusing the judiciary & 53,3 mil SAns w' LIES & stupid claims of bias & victimization?😨
