As South Africa counts down to the elections, the Electoral Court has overruled the IEC's decision to remove Zuma from the MK party's parliamentary list. Electoral Court chairperson, Dumisani Zondi, indicated that the judges unanimously agreed that Zuma qualified to go to the National Assembly, because his prison term did not qualify as a sentence. Legal analyst Melusi Xulu weighs in.

Phala phala was the most powerful n feared man who dealt with his political opponents mercilessly, in the process he captured the minds of those weak heads of institutions the likes of Zondo, Batoi etc. IEC did well in throwing this concourt conandrum sentence of zuma back at them to tell us why zuma wenzeni zuma. That kampepe tea girl of a judge was very excited reading a nonsensical judgement to please Phala phala, she forgot n behaving of atypical imbecile which failed to consult the constitution for guidance. Soith Africa abused Zuma n left the real criminals wondering about n still looting

WHATEVER THEY SAY, OR INTERPRET THE CONSTITUTION, THERE IS NO WAY ZUMA CAN BE IN A SITUATION ACCEPTABLE. THE FACT HE WAS NOT ALLOWED TO APPEAL IS NOT TRUE AS WE ALL KNOW THAT HE WAS SENTENCED AT THE CONCOURT, WHICH IS THE HIGHEST COURTA ND THEY ALLOWED HIM TO APPEAL, ALTHOUGHT NOT WITH THE WORD "APPEAL". THE FACT HE WAS SENTENCED AT THE CONCOURT WITHOUT A TRIAL WAS DUE TO THE CONTEMPT OF COURT AT THAT COURT. CONTEMPT OF COURT DOESN'T REQUIRE TRIAL AS IT IS BASED ON CLEAR EVIDENCES. IN SOME SITUATIONS CONTEMPT OF COURT LEADS TO PRISON IMMEDIATELY. IN OTHER WORDS, THE ELECTORAL COURT IS OVERWRITING THE DECISON OF THE CONCOURT ON ZUMA.

When Zuma refused to appear before Zondo, coz Zondo had refused to recuse himself as requested by Zuma, Zondo took it personally. Instead of opening a case of contempt of court with a magistrate court, Zondo approached his friends at the constitutional court to get a summons against Zuma. As a result, Zuma was convicted by the constitutional court without an option for an appeal. The constitutional court that is supposed to protect the rights of citizens was used to do the opposite. It is very sad that there was no outcry from the legal fraternity!!! The riots that followed Zuma's incarceration were a spontaneous reaction by the masses to a perceived injustice metted out to Zuma. Zondo should be regarded as the chief Instigator of the riots!!

This ruling about conviction and appeal is weak; The concourt will easily dismiss it; This is the question that raises; Are you then saying that the Constitutional Court cannot impose a sentence on anyone? Also, if the Constitutional Court sentences a person are you saying that person can enjoy priviledges afforded to non-convicted people on the basis that they could not appeal?

@@wisemanmaphisa2992 If the case started at lower courts he would still be appealing left right; so Deputy CJ Zondo decided to go to Concourt to get clarity on legality of a refusal to attend to a judicial body when supoenad. So Zuma was hoping for this matter to go to lower courts. What the Concourt did was not unlawful; They said Zuma must attend because he has no right to choose the Chairperson and did not give good reasons why Zondo must be recused.
