Dr Nandipha Magudumana, who has been linked to escaped convict, Thabo Bester does not have a valid medical license.
According to the Health Professions Council of South Africa (HPCSA), Dr Nandipha cannot treat patients due to her license expiring.
The doctor was meant to open her practice in Sandton earlier on Wednesday, 29 March.
Dr Nandipha who obtained her MB BCh from Wits in 2013, failed to renew her license when it expired in March 2021.
In May last year, Bester’s death was confirmed by the private Mangaung Correctional Center. However, after news that Bester had escaped and faked his own death was confirmed, the pair have been in hiding.
Dr Nandipha’s brother, Nkosinathi Sekeleni who ousted his sister for her relationship with Thabo Bester, is now also in hiding, for fear of his and his family’s lives.
Sekeleni shared in a social media post, that behind his sister’s looks and charms, there’s nothing but pure evil.
Which may seem unfathomable considering her glowing media coverage and accolades.
Dr Nandipha made the Mail & Guardian 200 Young SA list, was amongst the SADC Top 100 Young Leaders in 2018, and was one of the Top 20 Most Influential Young South Africans in 2018.

Is Dr Nandipha’s practice opened?
Dr Nandipha Magudumana’s medical practice, Optimum remains closed despite the businesswoman advertising that she will be reopening on Wednesday, 29 March.
The aesthetic practitioner’s reputation hangs in the balance after her being linked to escaped, convicted rapist and murderer, Thabo Bester.
Dr Nandipha is reportedly married to Bester under customary law, and was spotted shopping with the “Facebook rapist” just two months after he supposedly died in a prison fire.
