The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) is considering a virtual court hearing for convicted killer and rapist, Thabo Bester, on Friday morning, citing the fact that he is a flight risk.

Bester, who had been on the run since his brazen escape from the Mangaung Correctional Centre, was rearrested upon his arrival from Tanzania on Thursday.

His accomplice, celebrity doctor Nandipha Magudumana made a brief court appearance on Thursday where she was charged with assisting a prisoner to escape, harboring an offender, defeating the ends of justice, violation of a corpse and fraud.If Bester is to appear before the Bloemfontein Magistrates Court on Friday, it would be on charges of escape, defeating the ends of justice, violation of a body and fraud.

While South African law is that accused persons must appear before a court within 48 hours of arrest, the NPA's Phaladi Shuping said that this may differ with Bester.
