ANC Deputy President Jacob Zuma and French arms-maker Thint have been granted leave to appeal against a Durban High Court ruling that Mauritius be asked to provide documents relating to alleged arms-deal corruption, according to an SABC News report.

The National Prosecuting Authority has decided not to oppose the decision. However, it wants the court to grant an execution order to enable it to continue its efforts to obtain the documents, pending the outcome of the appeal. The documents the State seeks from Mauritius include the 2000 diary of Alain Thetard, former CE of Thales subsidiary Thint, which reportedly has details of a meeting in March 2000 between Thetard, Zuma and convicted fraudster Schabir Shaik.
