Malema - No jail time for Zuma

In a News24 article with the headline Jacob Zuma 'too old to go to jail', says Malema, Tshidi Madia reports:

Speaking at the Cape Town Press Club on Friday, EFF leader Julius Malema believes that although former president Jacob Zuma must bring himself before a court of law on the charges he faces, he is too old to go to jail.

Zuma faces 16 charges of fraud, money laundering, corruption and racketeering linked to 783 payments that French arms company Thales allegedly made to him in connection with the infamous arms deal in 1999. It saw Zuma's former close associate Schabir Shaik sentenced to 15 years in jail for corruption.

"If there are charges against him, he must go to court and answer to those charges," said Malema.

"The purpose of jail is correctional, we correct you and send you back to society. What about Zuma is going to be corrected because he is an old man?" Malema asked, forgetting that prison is the punishment.
