Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Dr Nandipha Magudumana and rapist boyfriend, Thabo Bester, reunited with romance and loved up eye contacts at Bloemfontein Magistrate’s Court.
It was a “tender” moment in the Bloemfontein magistrate’s court on Tuesday morning when Thabo Bester and his girlfriend Dr Nandipha Magudumana were reunited nearly three months since their dramatic arrest in Tanzania.
Bester and Magudumana are back in court together with 10 other accused linked to his dramatic escape from Mangaung maximum security prison in May last year.
The couple looked happy to see each other and spent moments before proceedings kicked off catching up. They were seated next to each other.
Magudumana could even be seen mouthing “I’m so happy to see you” as she gazed lovingly into his eyes.
Bester took a moment to greet Magudumana’s father, Zolile Sekeleni, who acknowledged his greeting with a smile and handshake.
The convicted rapist and murderer made a physical appearance in the Bloemfontein magistrate’s court after a request by his new lawyer.
Thabo Bester told the Bloemfontein Magistrate’s Court on Tuesday that items to the tune of around R30 million went missing when he and his lover, Dr Nandipha Magudumana, were arrested in Tanzania in April.
Bester and 11 co-accused were in the dock in connection with his escape from the Mangaung prison last year. His cell was set alight and officials believed that the body found inside it after the blaze was extinguished was his.
DNA tests later revealed that the body was that of Katlego Bereng.
The State alleges that Bereng’s body was smuggled into the prison and put in Bester’s cell, allowing the convicted rapist and murderer to escape..
