NATIONAL NEWS - Jacob Zuma has not filed his application for a review of the charges against him by late yesterday afternoon and his legal team will have to explain why in the KwaZulu-Natal High Court in Durban today.
That’s the word from National Prosecuting Authority spokesperson Luvuyo Mfaku , who told The Citizenhe was expecting a postponement today.
“I anticipate there will be a request for a postponement. The matter was postponed for them to lodge a review application.
“We have not received papers from them so they must address the court in terms of why they have not filed, and what they intend to do going forward.”
Zuma’s legal team was supposed to have filed his application for a review of the charges against him by May 15.
It is believed he may still try to bring an application to challenge NPA head Shaun Abrahams’ decision not to accept his representations and allow the criminal case against him to proceed.
