JOHANNESBURG - Nandipha Magudumana’s lawyers have revealed that plans are underway for the disgraced doctor to release her own documentary detailing her version of events.
Her attorney made the announcement moments after the High Court in Johannesburg dismissed her application to stop Showmax from airing the "Tracking Thabo Bester" docuseries.
Magudumana and her alleged lover Bester wanted the four-part documentary to be put on ice, until their upcoming trial reaches an advanced stage.
But in his judgment, the presiding judge Stuart Wilson highlighted that both applicants failed to prove that the documentary will infringe on their rights to a fair trial.
Friday's ruling has seemingly not deterred Magudumana, as her lawyer Machini Motloung said she will soon tell her side of the story.
"She will have an opportunity at some point to give her side. She will also do a documentary and definitely a documentary is coming soon."
He said it is disappointing that Magudumana wasn’t given the time and platform to air her views about the Tracking Thabo Bester documentary.
