According to reports on Saturday afternoon, Bester was arrested by the International Criminal Police Organisation (Interpol), an international crime combating agency that facilitates worldwide police cooperation and crime control. Efforts to reach Interpol for comment were unsuccessful.

Government sources said Bester was arrested with two others in Arusha city, more than 4 000km away from home. Arusha is a multicultural city with a majority Tanzanian population, with minorities from European and North American backgrounds.

SAPS crime intelligence sources said on Saturday that police chiefs were in Durban when Bester’s arrest was confirmed. It was reported that Bester’s accomplice and girlfriend, Dr Nandipha Magudumana, was recently spotted in KwaZulu-Natal.
