Chief prosecutor Shamila Batohi has been urged to make a decision on whether to charge Nompumelelo Ntuli-Zuma, accused of plotting to poison her estranged husband, former president Jacob Zuma.

“This matter has been hanging over my client’s head since June 2015,” her lawyer, Ulrich Roux, said in a letter sent to the newly appointed Batohi earlier this week.
