Duduzane Zuma, son of former president Jacob Zuma, was found not guilty today in the Randburg Magistrate\u2019s Court in the prosecution case for culpable homicide and reckless and negligent driving.<\/p>\n

AfriForum achieved this goal and abides by the court\u2019s decision,\u201d says Elias Maangwale, Investigator at AfriForum\u2019s Private Prosecution Unit.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

After AfriForum\u2019s Private Prosecution Unit applied to prosecute Zuma Jr privately, the NPA however overturned its initial decision and instituted prosecution.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
