Thabo Bester, a South African fugitive, and his accomplice, Dr. Nandipha Magudumana, were arrested in Tanzania on Friday night, after a prolonged investigation and search. Bester escaped from the Mangaung Correctional Centre on 3 May 2022 by faking his death in a cell fire. Since then, he and Magudumana had been living in a rented mansion in Sandton, where they operated Arum Properties together, scamming several people into paying millions for construction projects that were never completed.
