Durban â The Stateâs case of corruption against former eThekwini mayor and ANC KZN MPL Zandile Gumede was postponed on Thursday, with the presiding magistrate warning further delays could lead to the matter being struck off the roll.
Durban Commercial Crimes Court magistrate Dawn Somaroo gave the warning in the seventh court appearance of Gumede and her co-accused.
Gumede and 17 of her co-accused, including suspended eThekwini city manager Sipho Nzuza, and his wife Bagcinile and senior ANC councillor Mondli Mthembu, face charges linked to a R430 million waste tender the eThekwini municipality issued in 2017 while Gumede was mayor.
