High court dismiss Mapisa-Nqakula's urgent bid to interdict her arrest

Phemelo and legal expert Mpumelelo Zikalala discuss Mapisa Nqakula losing bid to stop arrest. South African Speaker of Parliament Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula lost a court bid to prevent the authorities from detaining her over allegations of corruption, and now faces arrest. Judge Sulet Potterill handed down the ruling in the High Court in Pretoria, the capital, on Tuesday. Mapisa-Nqakula, who faces possible graft charges related to her tenure as defence minister, had launched an urgent application for the court to compel the National Prosecuting Authority to suspend plans to arrest her and share with her evidence related to the case.
