Broadcasting giant, Multichoice has said it is pleased that the Johannesburg High Court, on Friday, upheld the public’s right to watch the “Tracking Thabo Bester” documentary.

 

Last weekend, Bester and his ex-girlfriend, Nandipha Magudumana – the country’s so-called ‘Bonnie and Clyde’ have via their legal teams, filed applications to have the release of the documentary halted.

 

 

 

In a statement, Multichoice said that the fascinating documentary will shed light on the allegations against Bester and Magudumana and allow the public the opportunity to make up their own minds and opinions about what took place.
