It is reported that Zuma is out of the country and seeking medical treatment in Cuba.

Zuma has been sick for a few weeks, missing his court appearances and also failing to appear before the State Capture Commission.

Reports have since emerged that the former head of state is receiving medical care in Cuba.

However, DIRCO, which is tasked to oversee the going out of former and current heads of state is yet to confirm whether Zuma is out of the country.

Former President Jacob Zuma failed to appear before the State Capture Commission

Zuma’s political party, the ANC, has also yet to be informed about Zuma’s whereabouts.

The 77-year-old Zuma, who is facing corruption, fraud and racketeering charges, is reported to be terminally ill.

He was reported to having been hospitalized in his home province of Kwa-Zulu Natal, just days after he was supposed to appear Raymond Zondo at the State Capture Commission last month.

Zuma, who served two terms as the state president, has been attacked on social media for seeking medical assistance outside of the country.
