Judge Meyer Joffe has declined to recuse himself from hearing the Jackie Selebi corruption trial.
In a strongly worded ruling, read out to the South Gauteng High Court on Friday, Meyer meticulously went through each of Selebi's complaints against him, and dismissed each with phrases like "unfounded" or "unfortunate and wrong".
This means Joffe will continue to preside over the marathon trial of the former top cop, which will resume on Monday when Selebi's counsel, Jaap Cilliers, will continue his cross-examination of drug dealer Glenn Agliotti.
