I thought the court ruled, in action brought by the DA, that we weren't resposible for his legal bills.

Last week a full Bench of the High Court dismissed former president Jacob Zuma’s attempt to appeal their ruling that he was not entitled to receive state funding for his criminal defence. The court ordered Zuma to repay more than R16-million with which taxpayers have funded his attempts to avoid facing trial on corruption charges. When you have R16-million at your disposal, your lawyers can provide you with the kind of muscular legal assistance that ordinary criminal accused persons can only dream of. Money – as is so often the case – makes all the difference.

This didn't work particularly as planned.

Yup it's not - court is where you do get cross-examined and interrogated..

So if he can't handle this court-lite how is he going to manage real court.

Only if he has to go to "real court". Which is basically the main purpose of this enquiry. I think.
 
I've stopped watching, these sessions feel very much like time wasting. I even speed the youtube video up to 1.5-2x faster and it still feels very slow.

Zuma wont see jail, he'll die of old age before then.

Someone else pays my taxes so I am not bothered. Man, if there was a way one could drop a message to Justice, I would say 'With due respect Milord, if so much money is spent on this commission, would you consider sitting for 8 hours s day like probably most South africans do?"

Or watch your hard-earned money getting wasted like there's no care in the world?

And you only get a lunch break - you want tea, have it at your desk.

You're wasting our dear tax payers' money with your frivolous court orders.:D

On a serious note, don't they kick off the day with meetings and such, to discuss the day ahead and close the day with similar...?

It's still early to speculate on the outcome. They're probably waiting for the Commission to wrap up before they pounce, else it might throw things into disarray. I'll give the process benefit of the doubt until it concludes. New broom at NPA and all of that...

As it has been said before, he has done well to use his juniors to do the dirty work for him. There is nothing anyone can do if Koloane swears that he facilitated that Gupta landing all on his own and for his own benefit, the least that can be done is to charge him.
