Zuma indicted in S Africa court

[emad]

South Africa's former Deputy President Jacob Zuma has appeared briefly in court to be charged with corruption, amid tight security.
Police sealed off roads around the court in Durban, where hundreds of his supporters turned out to greet him.

Mr Zuma, who was sacked in June, denies charges of corruption relating to a multi-billion dollar arms deal.

Two local subsidiaries of the French arms manufacturer, Thales, have also been indicted.

1. Zuma is described by many as having integrity.

He is believed innocent by the ANCYL.
Is this another case of a smear or a setup to take out a potential next President of SA?

I've just started to read more on SA due to a new friendship. A turbulent place of violence such a short while ago. Would you know any info on the late 1970's to mid-to-late 1980's in SA?

Do you believe he is innocent or guilty emad? Can you direct me to other sources that will give me some background info? Actions speak louder than words. imo

Thanks much,

Peace
