Dr. Magudumana and Boyfriend Owed R3 Million for Failed House Build

Dr Nandipha Magudumana and her boyfriend Thabo Bester, who is a convicted rapist and murderer, owe Dr Lloyd Maduwane and his wife R3 million for a house that Arum Holdings, a property company owned by Magudumana, failed to build, reports News24. Magudumana and Bester signed a settlement agreement in February 2023, in which they agreed to pay the Maduwanes R3 million in three installments. However, none of the payments were made. The Maduwanes are now seeking an order from the High Court to compel Arum Holdings to pay the R3 million. The NPA is investigating how Bester and Magudumana funded their alleged escape plot, and the evidence that has emerged from this case is likely to be of interest to the investigation.
