NPA denies payments were made to Zuma's rape accuser - report
11 January 2019
The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) has denied making any payments to the late Fezekile "Khwezi" Kuzwayo, who accused former president Jacob Zuma of rape.
This was according to a BusinessDay report on Friday which stated that the NPA said Kuzwayo had been "protected and housed" by the police in a safe house after she accused the former president in 2005.
Zuma was acquitted of the rape in May 2006. Kuzwayo died on October 7, 2016.
In October last year, Zuma's legal team requested information on whether the NPA paid Kuzwayo.
