The deadline for President Jacob Zuma to submit his fresh representations to the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) has been extended to the end of January.

NPA spokesperson Luvuyo Mafaku confirmed to News24 on Monday that Zuma's legal representatives had written to NDPP Shaun Abrahams requesting an extension until February 19.

"He [Abrahams] refused and gave them [until] January 31. He said any further extensions won't be entertained," Mfaku said.

The NPA had initially given Zuma until November 30 to make his representations after the Supreme Court of Appeal dismissed Zuma and the NPA's application to appeal a High Court ruling that the 2009 decision to drop corruption charges against him was irrational.
