Even with all his alleged billions of rands in secret accounts, Thabo Bester has finally gotten himself into a problem he cannot fix. According to latest reports, his attorneys who represented him on his first court appearance have withdrawn from the case, leaving Bester to find new lawyers. Critics believe that anyone who agrees to represent Bester is only doing so for money, not because they believe he is innocent and this is why the twist comes in. Dr Pashy has also come out to slam Thabo Bester and Dr Nandipha with another court case.
Remember, Thabo Bester was already convicted of murder and rape before he escaped from prison. This means he will be facing more charges when he appears in court again on 16 May. Some people are annoyed that Bester is still appearing in court and want him to be locked up already.
On the other hand, there are others who speculate that Bester might not have enough money to pay for his legal fees, which could be why his previous attorneys withdrew from the case. Despite this, Bester is expected to find a new lawyer to represent him in court. With his political connections, it has become made clear that Thabo Bester has the money to fund his legal fees but cannot access them from prison.
Meanwhile, the Thabo Bester incident has caused mixed emotions among people. Some believe that there is no need for Bester to appear in court and should just be locked up, while others want him to have legal representation regardless of his crimes. Nevertheless, Bester will be back in court in a few weeks, and it remains to be seen who will represent him.
