Jacob Zuma's Nkandla home: South African papers defy photo ban

South African newspapers have published images of President Jacob Zuma's residence, defying a government warning that this would break security laws. 
 The Star newspaper
Mr Zuma's Nkandla residence is at the centre of a row after it emerged that the government had used $20m (£12m) of taxpayers' money to refurbish it.
Cabinet ministers on Thursday said anyone who published images or footage of the estate would face arrest.
A group of South African editors described the warning as "absurd".
The Times newspaper has the headline "So, arrest us", above a picture of the luxury thatched-roof compound.
