South Africa’s Jacob Zuma failed to appear in court for the resumption of a graft trial, as prosecutors argued ill health did not justify his absence.
He was due in court on Tuesday for the resumption of the trial involving an arms purchase in 1999, when he was deputy president.
State advocate Wim Trengove says attendance in court is not optional while contesting an instruction from Zuma to carry on with his case without him.
Details of Zuma’s medical condition have been kept confidential.
