The duo is trying to interdict the broadcast of a documentary series about them, due to be released on Friday.
The Pretoria High Court is set to hear a legal battle between convicted killer Thabo Bester and his accomplice, Nandipha Magudumana, and streaming service Netflix.
The duo is trying to interdict the broadcast of a documentary series about them, which is due to be released on Friday.
The matter is set to be heard on an urgent basis on Thursday.
Bester claims the documentary, Beauty and the Bester, makes serious, unfounded and defamatory submissions against him.

Magudumana recently joined his legal bid to stop the screening of the docuseries on Friday as planned and advertised.
But this is not the first time that the pair has tried to block the airing of a production about them.
In 2024, the Johannesburg High Court dismissed their attempt to have a Showmax documentary canned, with Judge Stuart Wilson ruling that Bester’s lawyers failed to convince him that his right to a fair trial would be prejudiced by the screening of the series.
