Chief Justice Sandile Ngcobo has withdrawn his acceptance of an extension on his term of office, which expires in the middle of next month.

Justice Minister Jeff Radebe has officially notified President Jacob Zuma, who will now need to go through the process of appointing someone else into the position.

Ngcobo says he made the decision in order to protect the integrity of the Judiciary.
