South Africa's National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) has decided to prosecute Duduzane Zuma - the son of former president Jacob Zuma - for culpable homicide, local media reports.

Duduzane Zuma's Porsche hit the back of a minibus in Johannesburg in 2014, killing one woman instantly. At an inquest that year, the ex-president's son said he had lost control of his car after driving into a puddle.

The inquest recommended he was prosecuted but the NPA said there wasn't enough evidence to charge him.


In October 2017, AfriForum - a group that campaigns to protect the rights of white Afrikaners - said it would prosecute him privately.

ENCA reports that it is now unclear what will happen to that prosecution.
