WATCH LIVE | Fita to challenge government’s ban on cigarettes in court

The Pretoria High Court will on Wednesday hear an application by the Fair Trade Independent Tobacco Association (Fita) against government’s decision to ban the sale of cigarettes under lockdown Levels 3 and 4.
Minister Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma is the primary respondent in the case.
FITA, whose members include Carnilinx and Gold Leaf Tobacco, launched their court bid in May to have the sale of cigarette and tobacco products reauthorised.
