The lead prosecutor in the R430-million Durban Solid Waste (DSW) graft case involving former eThekwini mayor Zandile Gumede, city manager Sipho Nzuza, Nzuza’s wife, senior councillor Mondli Mthembu, officials and service providers, asked a Durban Magistrates’ Court on Thursday for almost four months’ grace to catalogue and digitise a mass of documents before handover, much to the annoyance of the defence.
Senior prosecutor Ashika Lucken further told magistrate Dawn Somaroo that only once all of the documents had been compiled and digitally collated, would a preliminary indictment be made available. Lucken asked the court for 3½ months to get the documents in order.
