the case study!
Thabo Bester escape case from Mangaung Correctional Centre.
On May 3, 2022, Bester escapes from Mangaung Correctional Centre with the help of G4S and
Integriton employees. G4S security supervisor Senohe Matsoara and Integriton’s CCTV technician
Tebogo James Lipholo are among those who allegedly assist Bester escape. Also assisting Bester, is
Magudumana, along with her father, Zolile Sekeleni.
Also in May last year, Magudumana claims the body of the man found in Bester’s cell. Parliament
heard how Magudumana had the body transported to a mortuary in Soweto, before she was set to
cremate it. It has now emerged that the SAPS then confiscated the body after they found that
Magudumana had claimed another body in April, claiming it was a relative, only for the body to be
found floating in a river.
Also in May, Magudumana approached the North Gauteng High Court in a bid to seek relief against
the police, for her to be allowed to cremate the body. She had claimed to be Bester’s customary wife,
but it was found that she was still in a civil union with Dr Mkhuseli Magudumana, per home affairs
records at the time.
Judge Edwin Cameron, the head of the Judicial Inspectorate for Correctional Services, who also
appeared in Parliament, said the police should have ensured Magudumana was arrested for perjury
solely based on the untruths she had presented to court.
Parliament also heard from top police officials that an affidavit submitted by Magudumana in the court
case had been signed by an officer who had left the police force months earlier. Police officials
confirmed to MPs that Magudumana was never questioned, despite many unanswered questions.
– June 2022
Bester and Magudumana are photographed at a Woolworths supermarket in Sandton. This only
emerged in March 2023 publicly in a GroundUp report. He is photographed sporting long hair and
sunglasses.
– August 2022
An autopsy conducted on the unknown body found in Cell 35 finds that the deceased, initially thought
to be Bester, had no signs of smoke inhalation, but had been murdered. His cause of death was
according to the autopsy, blunt force trauma to the head. Judge Cameron told MPs he alerted SAPS
and DCS in August, that their preliminary investigation found that Bester did not die in Cell 35.
April 7, 2023
Bester and Magudumana, along with their Mozambican accomplice, are finally arrested in Tanzania.
Several passports are found in their possession, including two passport of one Dr Pashy, real name
Mmereka Ntshani. (Sihle Mlambo & Se-Anne Rall, IOL News, 2023)
