"Dura lex sed lex", said the ancient Romans. The law is harsh, but it's the law. This week is rife with tales of former presidents brought to justice.

South Africa's former leader, Jacob Zuma, is also facing corruption charges. Also on the programme, the legacy of Winnie Mandela and Trump's isolationist policies.
