Johannesburg - Acting National Director of Public Prosecutions Mokotedi Mpshe on Saturday said a decision whether or not to prosecute ANC deputy president Jacob Zuma and National Police Commissioner Jackie Selebi would be made soon.
According to an SABC report, Mpshe said both Zuma and Selebi's cases had to be finalised as soon as possible, to avoid uncertainties and finger-pointing.
Mpshe was a guest speaker at an awards ceremony for best prosecutor in Mafikeng in the North West.
The Congress of South African Trade Unions (Cosatu) in KwaZulu-Natal has called on its members to be on what it terms a "provincial state of alert" in preparation for the possibility of the NPA reinstating charges against Zuma.
Cosatu provincial secretary Zet Luzipho said they believed that the political conspiracy against Zuma had reached - what he called - "its explosive destiny".
He said they believed that criminal charges against Selebi would be used as a decoy in what he saw as a political conspiracy.
