Show Notes
Former President Jacob Zumas attempt to access WhatsApp messages and emails of advocate Ishmael Semenya and retired judge Sisi Khampepe was dismissed by Acting Judge Thifhelimbilu Mudau. Zumas lawyers, led by Dali Mpofu, claimed bias against Khampepe as chair of a commission probing attempts to block apartheid-era crime probes and prosecutions. However, the court ruled that Zumas application was a nullity for skipping the required permission step, making his records demand pointless. This ruling keeps the commission rolling under Khampepe and halts Zumas challenge for now.
