The African National Congress (ANC) must postpone its presidential election until its deputy president Jacob Zuma has had his day in court and his guilt or innocence is determined through a free and fair trial, Democratic Alliance (DA) leader Helen Zille said on Thursday.

Zille was responding to the Supreme Court of Appeal's ruling that warrants used to search the premises of Zuma and his attorney, Michael Hulley, were legal.

Zille said the party waited with interest to see the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA)'s next move.

Speaking in Bloemfontein on Thursday, NPA spokesman Tlali Tlali said the authority was "very pleased" with the court's ruling.

"It brings certainty and finality at least up to this point on the contested issues."

Tlali said the NPA would now study the documents but he could not say if it was ready to prosecute Zuma further.
