Showmax Documentary Faces Legal Hurdle: Bester and Magadumana Seek Injunction

The highly anticipated Showmax documentary “Tracking Thabo Bester” is facing a last-minute legal challenge.

Here’s a breakdown of the situation:

Court Date Set for Bester and Magadumana’s Applications

Just in, the Johannesburg High Court has confirmed it will hear applications from Thabo Bester and Nandipha Magadumana on Friday, March 15th, 2024.

This date coincides with the scheduled premiere of the four-part documentary on Showmax.

Nature of the Applications

The details of Bester and Magadumana’s applications haven’t been made public, but it appears they are seeking an injunction to prevent the documentary’s release.

This suggests they have concerns about the content or its portrayal of them.

Impact on Documentary’s Release

Whether the court will grant the injunction remains to be seen. A decision on Friday could determine if the documentary airs as planned or is delayed.

Uncertainties Remain

This last-minute legal action throws the release of “Tracking Thabo Bester” into question. It’s unclear what arguments Bester and Magadumana will present, and how Showmax will respond.

All eyes will be on the Johannesburg High Court on Friday to see how this case unfolds.
