# Former president Jacob Zuma has approached the Constitutional Court to have Judge Sisi Khampepe removed as chairperson of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission cases inquiry.

In his application to the apex court, Zuma argues the High Court erred in its judgment, especially by not addressing the merits of the case.
