The decision by Deputy Chief Justice Raymond Zondo to seek criminal action against former president Jacob Zuma following his walk-out from the state capture inquiry last week is being met with support from the National Association of Democratic Lawyers of South Africa (Nadel).
Zuma left the commission without the permission of Deputy Chief Justice Raymond Zondo on Thursday, after Zondo had dismissed the former president's application for his recusal from the inquiry.

It imposes more duty on those who hold public office to lead by example and ensure that they are law-abiding citizens.Mvuzo Notyesi, President - National Association of Democratic Lawyers of South Africa (Nadel)
National Association of Democratic Lawyers of South Africa (Nadel) has also been critical of a subsequent statement issued by the Zuma Foundation.
