Jessie Duarte is heard raising concerns that the Zondo commission has gone prosecutorial. She also claimed that Zondo is biased against Zuma &amp; North Gauteng High Court issues questionable judgements. @IOL<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat is concerning is that comrade Zuma articulates the flaws that we have in the judiciary very very well. It is not that we can\u2019t see what is wrong with Zondo\u2026 For example, it has turned into a court of law, it is no longer a commission. They almost have a prosecutorial attitude towards people who come to give evidence,\u201d Duarte is heard saying, adding that one example was the arrest of former ANC MP Vincent Smith shortly after he gave evidence to the commission.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGoing to the commission under Zondo, personally, I believe absolutely it is not a good thing for comrade Zuma to do, given the personal and historical antagonism that exists between them (Zuma and Zondo).\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Duarte implied it would have been pointless for Zuma to approach the court for relief as there were concerns that the judiciary was compromised. She singled out the North Gauteng High Court (in Pretoria) which is headed by Judge President Dunstan Mlambo, saying it issued questionable rulings.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne of the things I feel that, as a top six, we must discuss is whether or not transformation in this judiciary has in fact taken place. Why is it that whenever we go to the North Gauteng High Court, we know that we will lose\u2026 It\u2019s almost a given that if we go to Dunstan Mlambo we will lose the case. It\u2019s almost a given that if Judge (John) Hlophe in the Western Cape listens to a matter, the ANC will come out better,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Towards the end of her input around the judiciary, Duarte is heard slamming Chief Justice Mogoeng Mogoeng for his Christian views, which she said were dangerous as he was a chief justice in a secular society.<\/p>\n<p>Also addressed by Duarte was the disputed claims Zuma made that, in March 2018, Inkosi Mandla Mandela went to Qatar to plead with the emir there to cut his support of the former head of the state.<\/p>\n<p>Duarte said that if that was true, Mandela should be taken to task because that implied that the ANC was trying to suffocate Zuma who is facing mounting legal bills after the state withdrew the funding of his corruption trial.<\/p>\n<p>It is worth noting that, last week, Mandela issued a statement in which he denied that he went to Qatar because he was on a mission to cut Zuma\u2019s lifeline. He said he was there on an official visit and at no point did he and the Emir discuss Zuma.<\/p>\n<p>Duarte did not comment when asked about the content of the recordings.<\/p>\n<p>Efforts were made to offer a right to reply to the Reverend Mbuyiselo Stemela, the spokesperson of the commission. He had not commented at the time this report was compiled. Also not commenting at the time of the report was Nathi Mncube, the spokesperson of the Office of the Chief Justice which conducts oversight on judges and their work.<\/p>\n<p>[email protected]<\/p>\n<p><b>Political Bureau<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Africa.
