There are unconfirmed reports circulating online that Nandipha Magudumana has been released from prison. This speculation comes as Oscar Pistorius is also set to be released on January 5th on parole.

The Department of Correctional Services, however, denies allegations of special treatment for Magudumana, who is reportedly held in the hospital division of the Bizzah Makhate prison in Kroonstad. The department asserts that this arrangement is for her own well-being.

The National Commissioner of Correctional Services, Makgothi Thobakgale, recently conducted a walkabout of Nandipha and Thabo Bester’s prison surroundings. While Nandipha is said to be in comfort at the hospital wing, Bester is reportedly held in complete isolation at the Kgosi Mampuru prison in Pretoria.

Addressing claims of special treatment, Thobakgale explained that the purpose of isolating Magudumana is to control her movement, ensuring no interaction with others or access to cellphones. He emphasized that she receives the same diet as other offenders, dispelling notions of preferential treatment.

Despite authorities describing Nandipha’s conditions as “high security,” social media users remain skeptical. Some express sentiments that her situation looks more like house arrest or comfortable living rather than stringent incarceration.
