DURBAN - News24 journalist Karyn Maughan has labelled former President Jacob Zuma’s private prosecution against her as “meritless” and has lodged court papers to interdict the legal attack. News24 journalist Karyn Maughan believes former President Jacob Zuma's private prosecution is meritless. The private prosecution came after National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) declined to prosecute Downer. The journalist said the private prosecution lacks standing since the former president did not suffer any personal injury from the alleged crimes. The medical note was submitted to Judge Piet Koen and attached to the state’s and Zuma’s papers.
