Time for Shaun Abrahams to act like a wolf -- not a sheep
It is time for National Director of Public Prosecutions Shaun Abrahams to act like a wolf, not a sheep – or at the very least, to act like a sheep with teeth.
Abrahams must move with speed to reinstate charges against President Jacob Zuma now that the Supreme Court of Appeal has swept aside attempts to protect him from prosecution on 783 counts of fraud, corruption and money-laundering.
The Save South Africa campaign says: Zuma cannot and must not be shielded from prosecution any longer.
The National Prosecuting Authority’s reputation is in tatters as a result of today’s Supreme Court of Appeal evaluation of how it handled the “spy tapes” saga.
It’s clear there has been far too much political interference in this case already – from the NPA’s irregular accessing of the spy tapes, through to its politically-driven decision to use them as an excuse not to prosecute Zuma.
