'Zuma is a repetitive lawbreaker' - Zondo Inquiry lawyers make case for JZ jail time 

The undeniable point is that if it were you or me, the court will not grant us 5 days to go to a police station, and begin our sentence. the ordinary person found guilty will be immediately taken into the cells below court, and transported to the police station. The fact that he was allowed days to turn himself in , in the first place, and the fact that the police had not arrested him and issued a statement that they will not arrest him until his application is heard in the CC (as if they are the court making an order), has already shaken the judicial system and confirms that there are two laws, one for them and one for us. the courts, police , and ministers have raped this country and it is you and I , who remain occupied by fighting each other, by the race baiting and the trivial issues, that suffer. we are a largely distracted nation, led by wolves. like it has been said, divide and conquer.

I love you Tembeka ,Your senior counsel status can't be underestimated by all means !You are going to be victor at all times.

Dali took this nonsense case with the intention of raising his profile unfortunately he has exposed himself to be a nincompoop of the South Africa. Amapiano please release a single on dumb.

😂🤣🤣 Dali is just free styling. No coherent script.

Dlali is totally out of his depth here. He now sound like a politician and not like lawyer.

Tembeka's arguments blow it out of the water. 🤞👌🙏 Mpofu's arguments are so weak and easy to dismiss. It is Zuma himself who blatantly refused to go to court many times yet now he is crying about not being given the chance to defend himself.

Dali is an embarrassment, his first argument was that no person must be detained without trial, but now he is saying Zuma is not the first person to be detained without trial aibandla lol

Why did Dali Mpofu agreed to take this matter, to embarrass himself like that, a top advocate talking this nonsense. This will damage his reputation

Not impressed by Zuma’s lawyer . He is out of depth as he struggles to explain his line of augment.

In the background I see Sobukwe smiling and listening to Thembeka putting the line across.

It's NOT only a shame but disgusting that South Africa after 1994 has come this. When rule of Law of is being undermined in such a manner. Law is law and there is NO exceptions. What a stupid drag. "When GOOD people decides NOT to do anything EVIL prevail"

No, Dali, nooo. How do you not be fully prepared for u arguably your biggest, most high profile case to date? You cannot free-style in your representation of this magnitude of a client.... Aowa

Zuma is not above our judiciary system in order for democracy to continue he should except his sentence.

Can you imagine every other defense attorney using this going forward, no one should be thrown in jail ever again. Just don't appear for any court appearances and everything will be fine, even if its contempt. furthermore, Magistrate court shall have jurisdiction going forward? Any normal person on the streets would of been behind bars by now... the SAPS will just send 2 officers to your residence at 1 in the morning and take you in. If anyone recall a certain father been arrested for buying baby formula under the curfew, just so he can feed his baby. Covid or not..

If he’s a repetitive lawbreaker then why isn’t he in jail???

Imagine if the Anc and its people put as much effort as they are doing for Jay-Z into actually bettering our country just imagine

Very disappointed in Mpofu SC

The other advocate made more sense no wonder dali mpofu is an eff comrade made unsubstantiated arguments n claims he must go back to law school. Think he and public protector should start a law firm named clowns law firms for corrupt officials 😢😢😢😢

I have never taken Dali serious. He cant even speak.

Yhoo Adv Mpofu😂😂😂embarrassed, he can't present himself.

Real long sentences are coming from pending criminal charges. He should have been advised by his legal council to stop taunting the judiciary by claiming he was ready and prepared to go to prison.

People go to prison for contempt of court. Yena ke mang? 😂

Ridiculous. He chose to not go to court after being told to attend, he was warned he would be found in contempt, and now they're trying to frame him as the victim while asking for more special treatment.

Why do I feel sorry for his lawyer more than I do for Zuma?

Eyyy Dali was all over the place and the Zondo lawyer was on point he wasn't here to play games he stated the law and common sense

I can't focus on serous things now bcz of this Zuma scandal this dog must be arrested

Our Constitution court has ruled He is NOT above the law

"This has never happened before" First time for everything :D

Mpufu your reasons are so weak, you are trying by all means to make some extra money from Zuma your point is pointless Zuma deliberately broke the law consistently and defied the constitution you must refund him the money he paid you to represent him. You are not making any point at all.

No man, he is going to prison just for his contempt of court. He will be going to court from prison for all his other crimes against humanity. Dali, yes, Zuma’s crimes are exceptional. You know, seeking mitigating circumstances is one thing, but he remains deviant with arrogance, attacking the judicial system and the constitution. What a coelacanth!

Truly speaking I blv Dali Mpofu law career grew big because of his political connections

Tembeke is a great adv. future CJ

Ngcukas is the Man.

Seems like there are no reasons why Zuma mustn't go to jail.

In a FREE country NO MAN is above THE LAW!!! This is MUCH bigger than Zuma and I wonder how many South Africans understand this.

Who hires Dali Mpofu, this guy is a absulate joke as usual.

Put me 1 on 1 with Daly for facts, I'll trap him 10 nil !!

Is this guy really an advocate? So much howling & less substance!

I'm going back to finish law school 😑 thanks to the bad hair day Sir😂, you're a real one sbali, glad to have met you.

Zuma is the reason why a leader should have a college education to understand the concept of breaking the law

Dali lost the case even before the beginning of this presentation.

Friday turns to Monday, Monday tunes to December, December turns to 2077 😂 2077 zuma is in heaven, History made!

Zuma clearly chose the wrong lawyer..." Er Er Er Er Er Er.......🙄

May God be with these judges..Give them wisdom and insight... Because Lord You, know zuma.... 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

Only ppl who want to end up in jail will ask Mpofu to represent them...

Isn't this the same judge that was grilled by Malema at the JSC

Career criminal!

so How did it happen with Mr Zuma? that you are so sure it will never happen again? but there is a saying that if He did it then they will do it again.

This South African government is going SEE GOD

Ncgukaithobi is a better lawyer than Mphofu

Ngcukaitobi 👌🔥🔥🔥🔥 vs Mpofu 💤 😴 😴 …

Lock him up and also charge him for contemp off court again as he did not report at police station on Sunday...

Mpofu is a criminal

No one is above the Law...even former Presidents...the Law is there to be adhered to & when you disrespect & disregard it you have to accept the consequences regardless of who you are...

Dali very overrated lawyer

Tembeka is just about the best lawyer in the country

Zuma is not the first person to be detained without trial mmhmm did I hear Dali correctly? Which means he must go to jail, Dali has just ruins everything for his client

I have heard lawyers beating about the bush before! But Dali Mpofu today was so incoherent, I was truly embarrassed on his behalf I couldn't bring myself to look at him!! Looks like Dali Mpofu is truly out of his depth here!! Was he forced to take this case? I mean really??

He won't see a day in jail because the judiciary has been captured. I'll be very surprised if they actually arrest him. Maybe he'll serve his sentence at home. Then he has won.

Let us desist from using soccer game match interpretation principle to make our arguments. Legal arguments isn't about who is your fave or who you can understand his points better than the other.

Mpofyzee is a terrible lawyer...

Dali Mpofu should be just a politician...very embarrassing. He only win winnable case

It's easy to defend the law than defending a repetitive law breaker, a former president who should be the very custodian of the country's laws by virtue of societal standing, should be exemplary and leading the pack in upholding the law, instead the opposite is the case, hence he needs a more stricter punishment for ignorance.

Dali....you just got owned and dominated by an organised mind and perfect delivery - with clarity and no ill intentions to obfuscate, deviate, or agitate - well done lad

He is a thief, a crook and a thief

The spokesperson of Mr JG Zuma,aka RRL(Repetitive Recalcitrant Lawbreaker)bragged about SC Dali ...that he has" something up his sleeve..."and then bang!!!TKO from SC Tembeka.Dali,never associate yourself with RRL aka JG Zuma 😈you'll end up apologising to the nation ...ask Malema .. hope you will.

I am a lawyer from Kenya and admire adv Tembeka. You guys write some of the funniest comments anywhere as you berate your former president and his lawyer.

Where did he get the diploma, in a lucky packet

Honesty Dali mpofu argument is null and void for an advocate, seriously I am not sure what he is trying to Achieve

Constitutional dilenquent

The judge's vissible bias and contempt against Dali's submission is just unbelievable🤔🤔

Drag the thieve's arse to jail!

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 For Ngcukaitobi...

Just put Zuma in jail and trough the key away. How many vaccines could we buy for 'normal' citizens, for all these costs been made over the taxpayer's saw backs???? Give a cel to his buddy Niehaus next to him, to keep him company.

How can we be entertaining this joke? I mean, we are knee deep in $#!% and this will be the last straw really.

He was out of depth

Because he is a former President twice in on one sentence and Zuma law

Dali cannot dala here. I am so confused about his legal rant. I'm no legal mind, but definitely cannot follow his logic. Sounds like garbage. His points are neither here nor there... Maybe in nkandla? Who knows. I was laughing at his 9 out of 10 analogy as a case study point. Stupid i tell you. Now this is bad legal "advice" right here. Just hope application is dismissed.

Ben 20 is a useless lawyer. He was schooled here.

Coronavirus is even afraid of Thembeka

How tf can Mpofu a member of EFF represent an ex opposition party president fight for the trial of a man they were vehement to see out of parliament??😵

Any other individual would be in jail by now.

I thought the CC is the apex court of our constitutional democracy and no lower court has jurisdiction over that court and its decisions. In summary, the decision of the apex court is final.

Exceptional circumstances means exactly that 😀😀😀

Dali mpofu should learn a thing or 2 from tembeke

We have to accept that we al have a right to our opinions and we also have to accept that even advocates have the right to expose themselves when offering idiotic arguments instead of sound legal arguments.

Says the anc cadre..... He is fighting nwo CYRIL and Zondo are the enemies! Wake up sa!!! Zuma is our only hope!!!!

So the argument is ... because it never happened before, it shouldn't happen now 😆

Has dali ever won a case

The boiling point is, did Zuma get an opportunity to mitigate his sentence.? The answer is no. Is there fairness there?

🏃🏿‍♂️Dali Mpofu uyazifanela noNgizwe

Does this mean because he is a former state President, and he is 80 years so it means that he can do why he want and steal, and never be arrested. Dali where did you learn your law studies, there are ppl who are more than 90years in jail, secondly this law will bind to all citizens who is fraudulent and corrupt and not only ppl who are former head of state

Justice and law of the land should be respected

This dude always protecting the criminal

How is he a law breaker when he has no previous record of encarcaration

This advocate really outshined Mpofu.

Respect for Adv. Thembeka. Brave, intelligent man.

Thanks for showing that there is no case law being created here, this is all pointless as much as we understand the contempts of court

We will see

What a load of illogical rubbish
