Damning findings about the presidential jet-leasing contract have not been used to strengthen a court case, writes Glynnis Underhill.

Ex-president Thabo Mbeki is suing Willem Heath for defamation, over claims that Mbeki instigated rape and corruption charges against President Zuma.

President Jacob Zuma has appointed deputy national director of public prosecutions, advocate Nomvula Mokhatla as the new acting head of the SIU.

Advocate Willem Heath says the impression that the head of the Special Investigating Unit was partisan could undermine the unit’s work.

There was mixed reaction from parties over the resignation of newly-appointed SIU head Willem Heath, with the ANC saying it was "regrettable".

Former NDPP Bulelani Ngcuka has commended Willem Heath’s resignation as SIU head, saying the move was in the best interests of the country and SIU.

Willem Heath has resigned as head of the Special Investigating Unit (SIU) after filling the role for less than a month.

The presidency has distanced itself from the comments made by SIU head Willem Heath, saying they were made in his personal capacity.

Thabo Mbeki has demanded evidence of allegations that newly appointed SIU head Willem Heath had initiated two criminal cases against Jacob Zuma.

Judge Willem Heath’s allegations about Thabo Mbeki may yet cost President Zuma’s latest appointee his newly reacquired job as the head of the SIU.

New SIU head Willem Heath has accused former president Thabo Mbeki of "initiating" rape and corruption charges against President Jacob Zuma.

The justice sector has been thrown into turmoil by the ruling on Menzi Simelane’s appointment, amid rumours his NPA job will go to Willie Hofmeyer.

The presidency has rejected claims that Willie Hofmeyr’s removal as Special Investigating Unit head is politically motivated.

There has been mixed reaction to President Jacob Zuma’s replacement of Willie Hofmeyr with Willem Heath as head of the Special Investigation Unit.

President Jacob Zuma has announced the appointment of Willem Heath as head of the Special Investigating Unit, dropping Willie Hofmeyr.

Is Thuli Madonsela the new Willem Heath? A curious question, you might well think.

National Director of Public Prosecutions Moketedi Mpshe could have made no other decision than to drop charges against ANC president Jacob Zuma.

Heath called the appeal ”bizarre”, saying the NPA ”soldier on for a cause which can only be their own”.

Police bungled their probe of Brett Kebble’s murder so badly that Willem Heath suspected they had ”deliberately stalled and attempted to sabotage” it.

Legal and academic experts are helping the ANC devise a strategy to get Jacob Zuma off the hook — possibly by closing probes into the arms deal.
