The Supreme Court of Appeal (SCA) has unanimously confirmed that the medical parole granted to former president Jacob Zuma by then prison boss Arthur Fraser was unlawful - and it ruled he should return to jail.
Former president Jacob Zuma has been authorised to prosecute advocate Bill Downer SC privately. On Tuesday, the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) announced that Zuma was issued with a nolle prosequi certificate.
The Department of Correctional Services says there's "no evidence" Jacob Zuma illegally influenced its former national commissioner, Arthur Fraser, into granting the former president medical parole – and insists the release was lawful.
