Police spokesperson Brig Athlenda Mathe said a 31-year-old
Zimbabwean man was arrested in Johannesburg on Sunday.
“At this stage, he faces a charge of assisting an inmate to
escape from lawful custody. The suspect is likely to face more charges.”
Mathe said nine people have been arrested in the case so
far.
The man is expected to appear in the Bloemfontein
magistrate’s court on Tuesday.
“The possibility of police effecting more arrests cannot be
ruled out.”
Last week national police commissioner Fanie Masemola told
media more arrests were expected in the case, which also involves Bester’s
partner, Dr Nandipha Magudumana.
“We are investigating … there are a lot of people involved
in this investigation.”
