It is not known when “Facebook rapist” Thabo Bester and his partner Dr Nandipha Magudumana will be back in the country, but South African authorities are confident of a smooth process- even if social media users are not convinced.
The two, with a Mozambican, were arrested in Tanzania on Friday, 10km from the Kenyan border.
Minister of justice and correctional services Ronald Lamola announced their arrest after a lengthy search by police.
Bester escaped from Mangaung Correctional Centre in May last year after faking his death.
A team led by SAPS deputy national commissioner Lt-Gen Tebello Mosikili went to Arusha, Tanzania, on Sunday to finalise legal processes to bring Bester and Magudumana back to South Africa.
With no date for when the duo will land in the county, scores on social media have pondered the possibility of the pair escaping from custody in that country.
