Witnesses who found body allegedly stolen by Dr Nandipha Magudumana speak out
The four accused in aiding the escape from jail of rapist and murderer Thabo Bester will appear in the Bloemfontein Magistrate's Court tomorrow.
This includes Bester's girlfriend, Dr Nandipha Magudumana who faces four charges relating to murder, aiding and abetting an escape, fraud and violation of dead bodies. Magudumana is alleged to have stolen three bodies from Free State mortuaries to aid her lover's escape, one of which she claimed was her father.
That body was later found in a river. SABC News senior reporter Chriselda Lewis and cameraman Gqabi Njokweni, tracked down the witnesses who discovered that body, calling the police not knowing it would feature in the case of one of South Africa's most daring jailbreaks.

How does a person just 'claim' bodies.. I feel many people should still lose their jobs and go to jail over this case. It's sickening

She's a Dr so she knew the process of claiming a body. Remember the people who were in possession of the body didn't know the victim nor the Dr. When she identified herself as the Daughter they had absolutely no reason to dispute that, especially since no one else came forth to view and claim the body. She just needs to submit an affidavit her ID fill out release forms and get the body. And the fact that she is a Dr helped her, they had no reason to suspect a Dr would involve herself in such

I like that she did all of this herself coz she showed her true self. That quiet persona she acted in court was just for her defence. It will be interesting to hear what her excuse will be. The fact she claimed 3 bodies and insurance for them also means darker aspects of how insurance paid up? I assume they would need ID of the deceased and death certificates. So many more cogs running in this master mind machine😂😂😂. I also wonder how the dad who I assume is a pensioner continued getting pensions etc if he is registered as dead. So who was claiming his pensions? Wooooo this whole case is just a thriller movie with all its twists.

Or even her steps before going mortuary...wud she not have to go to police station to get permission to retrieve a corpse? Ogh I have so many questions.

I would be very surprised if Magudumana isn’t jailed for a whole life term. She is vile and yet, there are people who take her sides.
