WATCH | Masked Dr Nandipha arrives in court flanked by armed police

A packed Bloemfontein magistrate's court saw the arrival of celebrity doctor Nandipha Magudumana flanked by heavily armed police. Magudumana was wearing a mask and a green Nike hoody which covered her face. 

Reporters jockeyed to take a snap of the now notorious influencer after being deported from Tanzania earlier in the morning.

Magudumana faces a slew of charges, including multiple charges of murder, aiding and abetting an escape, violation of bodies and fraud.
