Former President of South Africa Jacob Zuma, has been granted compassionate leave to attend the funeral of his younger brother on Thursday.
He was flanked by his family members and the burial ceremony was under the guard of soldiers and military police.
He was sent back to jail as soon as the ceremony was over.
Zuma was sentenced on 29 June for defying an instruction to give evidence at an inquiry into corruption during his nine years in power. He has testified only once at the inquiry into what has become known as "state capture" - meaning the siphoning off of state assets.
Businessmen have been accused of conspiring with politicians to influence the decision-making process while he was in office. But Zuma has repeatedly said that he is the victim of a political conspiracy.
In a separate legal matter, Zuma pleaded not guilty last month in a corruption trial involving a $5bn (£3bn) arms deal from the 1990s.
