A South African inquest has found that President Jacob
Zuma's son was negligent in a car accident which caused the death of a woman.
Prosecutors had initially ruled out charging him, but they
will now be under pressure to do so, correspondents say.
Duduzane Zuma's Porsche hit the back of a minibus in
Johannesburg in February, killing the woman instantly.
The president has 21 children and has married six times.
Mr Zuma, 30, told the inquest that he lost control of his
car after driving into a puddle.
However, magistrate Lolita Chetty ruled that he did not
behave in "a reasonable manner under the circumstances".
In July, the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) declined
to charge the 30-year-old businessman with culpable homicide, or manslaughter,
saying there was insufficient evidence.
Three other people were injured in the accident.
