How judges are deciding SA’s political future
FORMER President Thabo Mbeki, his arch-rival Jacob Zuma and the National Prosecuting Authority will fight one final mighty battle in the Constitutional Court over the Judge Chris Nicholson judgment.
Mbeki has already submitted an affidavit contesting the judgement and today the NPA did the same.
Two judges - Hillary Squires and Chris Nicholson - have already given judgements that led to the unseating of the country’s two top politicians. Squires famous judgement in the Schabir Shaik case sealed the fate of Zuma, who was fired by Mbeki. Then Nicholson’s “inference” that Mbeki interfered in the Zuma prosecution led to the ANC firing Mbeki.
Here is the full text of the NPA’s 16 point assault on Judge Chris Nicholson’s ruling setting aside charges against Jacob Zuma:
