Former President Jacob Zuma is back in the country after spending a few weeks in Russia where he received medical treatment, the Jacob Zuma Foundation announced on Wednesday.
“The JG Zuma Foundation is glad to announce that its patron has recently returned from his medically-related trip to the Russian Federation,” it said.
“The check-up and observations went well.”
The foundation said that Zuma thanked all those who kept him in their prayers.
“He wishes to thank all the progressive South African citizens and organisations who sent him good wishes and prayers during this period.”
The Foundation further said that Zuma’s return was also necessitated by the private prosecution matter which will be sitting in the Pietermaritzburg High Court on Friday 4th August 2023.
“In terms of the law, it is compulsory for the Private Prosecutor to appear whenever the accused persons appear in terms of the summons or as ordered by a Judge.
“As matters stand and barring any not to be ruled out shenanigans, the private prosecution is otherwise set down to be conducted in the presence of the two accused persons this Friday, 4th August 2023,” the Foundation said.
