Zuma can challenge Zondo summons in court – legal expert
Updated | By Gaopalelwe Phalaetsile
Legal expert, Ulrich Roux says former President Jacob Zuma can approach a High Court to set aside a summons issued by the State Capture Commission of Inquiry on Friday.
Deputy chief justice Raymond Zondo granted the commission permission to summon Zuma to appear from 16 to 20 November.
"He would have to prove that the Deputy Chief Justice is biased against him and is not objective for the court to set aside the summons," said Roux
