Lipholo, 44, was employed by the company contracted to install and maintain cameras at the Manguang Correctional Centre.

Magudumana and her partner Thabo Bester, were deported to SA in the early hours of Thursday after their arrest in Tanzania last Friday.

The doctor and Lipholo will be joined by Senohe Ishmael Matsoara and Magudumana's father, Zolile Cornelius Sekeleni at their next court appearance.
