Former South African president, Jacob Zuma to be prosecuted on 16 charges of corruption
The director of South Africa’s National Prosecuting Authority says that former president Jacob Zuma will be prosecuted on 16 charges of corruption.
Shaun Abrahams announced today that Zuma will face charges including fraud, corruption, racketeering and money laundering.
Zuma, 75, resigned as president last month, after he was ordered to
do so by his party, the African National Congress. The charges stem from
a $2.5 billion government arms purchase in 1999, when Zuma was deputy
president. Zuma was elected president in 2009.
