Incarcerated former South Africa president Jacob Zuma suffered yet another legal setback on Friday after the Pietermaritzburg High Court dismissed his stay of arrest application.
Mr Zuma had on Tuesday approached the High Court for an urgent application seeking a stay of the warrant of execution for his arrest following a 15-month jail sentence handed down by the Constitutional Court for contempt of court.
