Johannesburg - Former president Jacob Zuma cast further doubt on the legitimacy of the testimony at the Zondo commission of inquiry into state capture delivered by ANC member of parliament Vytjie Mentor last year.
Zuma denied meeting her at the Guptas' Saxonwold compound and on an international trip to China as Mentor had indicated.
We look at some of the key points of Mentor’s testimony that were disputed by Zuma when he appeared before the commission this week.
Refusing to meet Zuma in China
Mentor claimed that on a trip to China, which Zuma was also a part of, the former president had sent a message requesting to see her and she claimed to deny the invitation. Her testimony before the commission earlier this year came under the spotlight after the commission’s investigators could authenticate her claims about refusing to meet with Zuma on an international trip to China and her description of the Guptas' Saxonwold compound.
