The Department of Correctional Services (DCS) will be appealing the judgment handed down by the Gauteng Division of the High Court, Pretoria, on the medical parole placement of Former President, Mr Jacob Zuma.
Having carefully studied the judgement, DCS is convinced that another court may arrive at a different conclusion.
DCS is of the view that the court sadly misinterpreted the Correctional Services Act and erred in declaring the decision of the National Commissioner to place Mr Zuma on Medical Parole to be unlawful and setting it aside.
We will outline the grounds of appeal in the papers that we will be filing in court in due course.
