Zuma Ordered To Surrender Spy Tapes

The court ordered acting national director of public prosecutions Nomgcobo Jiba to lodge a copy of the tapes with the registrar of the court . The ruling by Judge Rami Mathopo followed an application by the Democratic Alliance (DA). The party wants to overturn a 2009 decision by then acting National Prosecuting Authority head Mokotedi Mpshe to withdraw fraud and corruption charges against Zuma. The DA wants access to the so-called Zuma spy tapes, recordings of intercepted phone conversations, In March 2012, the Supreme Court of Appeal gave the NPA 14 days to produce the documents. The documents were not produced.
