Jacob Zuma trial to be heard virtually on Tuesday

The corruption case against former president Jacob Zuma will proceed online on Tuesday morning.

The office of the chief justice announced this after the KwaZulu-Natal High Court in Pietermaritzburg last week declared that the case would be heard in open court.

Zuma’s legal team had complained that a virtual appearance would infringe on his rights.

But Zuma is still in hospital on the eve of the trial proceedings.
