The Pietermaritzburg High Court will in the next four days hear the application for a stay of prosecution brought by former president Jacob Zuma’s co-accused arms company Thales
Thales, accused number two, is facing one count of racketeering; two counts of corruption and one count of money laundering.reports that the company said in a statement it believes it cannot obtain a fair trial, maintaining it and its employees’ innocence. “Thales respects the law, has a zero-tolerance policy on corruption and has cooperated fully with the local authorities at all times, and will continue to do so,” the statement reads.
The company cited the long delay as an overriding factor and that the “employees involved in the events underpinning the charges are not available to provide [the company] with instructions…to assist [Thales] in presenting its defence at trial”.
