Commission of Inquiry launched into Arms Deal

President Jacob Zuma this week announced that a commission of inquiry will be launched into the Arms Deal. Two years ago according to the Presidency legal proceedings were instituted in the Western Cape High Court asking the Court to direct the President to appoint an indepedent judicial commission of inquiry into allegations of wrongdoing or to require him to reconsider his refusal to do so. It later transpired that the Western Cape High Court was the wrong forum to hear the matter. An application was then brought in the Constitutional Court. The matter is set down for hearing on 17 November 2011. Below is an interview I conducted with the spokesperson for President Jacob Zuma, Mac Maharaj about the commission of inquiry into the Arms Deal. This interview was first broadcast on the Voice of the Cape's Drivetime Show on 16 September 2011...
