JOHANNESBURG - Thabo Bester and Nandipha Magudumana have filed an urgent court application to interdict the release of a documentary on Netflix.
The documentary is titled "Beauty and the Bester."
Bester is a convicted rapist and murderer who was involved in a dramatic prison escape from the Mangaung Correctional Centre in 2022.
The plot saw Bester fake his own death and disappear, only to be recaptured in Tanzania in 2023 alongside his partner, Dr Nandipha Magudumana, a once celebrated medical doctor.
The case against him and his co-accused will be heard later this year.
