Thabo Bester ‘already a dead man’ – Gayton McKenzie

In a tweet, McKenzie said: “Thabo Bester is already a dead man. He will be stabbed by a prisoner. He is a walking ATM in jail for the 26 gang. You can never run away from a hit issued by the numbers gang ( nothing personal, just big money).”

When the couple went to ground in late March 2023, McKenzie first predicted that they would be killed, also implying that their deaths would be sanctioned by important, albeit unnamed, people.

“The Dr [Nandipha Magudumana] girlfriend will soon be killed together with Thabo Bester. You don’t pull such a brilliant escape without very powerful politicians, cops and prison officials. These officials and politicians are now hunting harder for the suspects,” he said at the time.

Poisoning fears

Earlier during Friday’s court appearance, Bester – through his lawyer – told the magistrate that he had concerns about his safety, saying he had not eaten since being held at the Kgosi Mampuru II Correctional Centre in Tshwane. He said he was scared of being poisoned.
