The defamation case that African National Congress (ANC) Member of Parliament Derek Hanekom has brought against former President Jacob Zuma will be heard in the High Court in Durban on Friday.

Hanekom, who’s also a member of the ANC’s National Executive Committee, is suing Zuma for R500 000 for claiming that he was a known enemy agent.

I’m not surprised by @Julius_S_Malema revelations regarding @Derek_Hanekom. It is part of the plan I mentioned at the Zondo Commission. @Derek_Hanekom is a known enemy agent.
