Zuma rape trial continues

ANC deputy president Jacob Zuma is expected to spend another uncomfortable day in the Johannesburg High Court today as state advocate Charin de Beer wraps up her closing argument in his rape trial. She is likely to ask Zuma’s defence team to reveal his HIV status. They reportedly have Zuma's medical records at hand. On Wednesday, De Beer called Zuma arrogant if he thought the court would accept his word unchallenged that he was HIV-negative. Zuma denies raping a 31-year-old HIV-positive woman in November last year and says the sex was consensual.
