国际英语资讯:Zuma in court to support his son

JOHANNESBURG, Aug. 23 -- Former South African President Jacob Zuma appeared with his son Duduzane in Randburg magistrate court for the latter's alleged homicide case on Thursday.

During his appearance, Duduzane was accompanied and supported by Zuma, who sat not far from his son during court proceeding. The two appeared friendly and made small talks with journalists.

The case however has been postponed to October.

"We have arranged a date of October 26 to revolve all pe-trial issues and transfer of his matter to a trial court," States Prosecutor Yusuf Baba told the court.

When the case was postponed, Duduzane and his father were escorted out of court by a security team.

Duduzane, 36, is facing two charges of culpable homicide relating to an accident which claimed the lives of two people in 2017 when Duduzane's Porsche collided with a mini bus taxi in Sandton at night.

Thursday was his second appearance after being in court on July 12 this year.
