Zuma Medical Parole Preferential Treatment' To Be Raised In Parliament

Opposition political parties are to raise in Parliament the alleged preferential treatment in granting former president Jacob Zuma medical parole while other prisoners requesting such parole have even died in prison after being refused this. Party representatives said this in a debate on TV channel Newzroom Afrika (sic) on Sunday evening. The Department of Correctional Services announced earlier on Sunday that Zuma is to be released on medical parole less than two months after starting a 15-mnoth sentence for contempt of court, amid speculation as to whether he has a terminal illness.
