Schabir shaik medical parole
Shaik: I haven't been called to testify against Zuma
Schabir Schaik says he will only testify if he is forced to as the matter is between former President Zuma and the NPA.
The 'Sunday Independent' is reporting that Shaik says he's willing to turn state witness and bring closure to the matter.
Justice and Correctional Services Minister Michael Masutha says that Schabir Shaik's health was last assessed before he was controversially released on medical parole in March 2009.
Shaik was sentenced to 15 years in jail after being convicted of paying President Jacob Zuma a bribe.
The DA has asked the chairperson of correctional supervision and parole to look into Shaik's parole.
A journalist says the medical parolee threatened to headbutt him, saying ‘I will break you white boy’.
