South African corruption trial dismissed
The ruling set off jubilant celebrations by Zuma supporters, who believed it would add new momentum to his presidential campaign — although the cloud of possible corruption and concerns about his judgment may linger.
“Everything has been brought to finality. If there are any others who would like to bring me back to court they must start afresh,” Mr Zuma told about 5,000 supporters celebrating outside the Pietermaritzburg courthouse.
