Duduzane Zuma Testifies At His Trial

The son of former President Jacob Zuma has taken to the witness stand in Randburg Magistrate Court to give his version of events surrounding the car crash that killed Phumzile Dube.

He is currently on trial for culpable homicide following an accident that caused the death of Ube back in 2014.

He has told the court he is not guilty.

Whilst being questioned Zuma claimed that on the day of the accident there was heavy rain and visibility was poor. He also told the court that he had been driving at a speed of about 120km/h and had hit a puddle of water, which resulted in his vehicle losing control and spinning.

He said his car spun and hit an "object". He did not recall what exactly the object was.

He admitted that the incident had an effect on him and that he sympathised with anyone who had been affected by it.

Due to issues with the recording machine the case has been postponed until tomorrow
