The Zuma Charges: Thales, the company which forever sullied the memory of the wise sage of Greece

, Hennie van Vuuren describes the relationship between French arms company Thomson-CSF and the apartheid government. The state needed weapons to maintain white rule and the company was happy to breach international sanctions to turn a profit.

Zuma argued on Monday that the National Prosecuting Authority had violated his rights to dignity and a fair trial. On Tuesday, it was Thales’s turn to explain why the case should never go to court. Judge Thoba Poyo-Dlwati politely told Katz, “When you make the argument over and over, we lose it. Let’s just digest it. Sometimes a lawyer makes a good argument but ruins it by repeating themselves.”

After that meeting, Thétard allegedly sent an encrypted fax to the company’s Paris offices saying Zuma had agreed in code to the arrangement.
