Johannesburg – The South African state prosecutors said on Friday that they needed time to study the High Court’s ruling after it ordered that a 2009 decision to drop 783 corruption charges against President Jacob Zuma should be reviewed.
The court’s ruling does not automatically reinstate the charges against Zuma.
A legal process involving state prosecuting authorities and the courts must reach a decision on whether to charge the president.
It was also not immediately clear whether Zuma would appeal the ruling. (Reuters/NAN)
