The Presidency received an application for pardon from Mr Shabir Shaik last year, on 24 April 2008.
The application will be processed like all other applications. The President must consider every application brought before him in terms of his Constitutional responsibilities, as outlined in Section 84 (2) (j) of the Constitution of the Republic.
