Police have disclosed that former South African President Jacob Zuma was involved in a car crash on Thursday evening after a drunk driver collided with his vehicle.

Fortunately, Zuma escaped from the accident unhurt.

The man has since been arrested for “drunken driving” and “reckless and negligent driving”.

Meanwhile, Zuma was released from prison in 2022 following the completion of his jail sentence.

Zuma was jailed for 15 months in July 2021 for his refusal to appear before the Judicial Commission of Inquiry into allegations of State Capture while he was president from 2009-2018.
