Free State National Prosecution Authority spokesperson Phaladi Shuping said the application was set for Tuesday and Wednesday.

On 5 June, Judge Phillip Loubser dismissed the application on the grounds that Magudumana gave consent to her return when she told police that she wanted to go back to South Africa to see her children.Loubser, however, found that the state had performed a “disguised extradition” instead of a “deportation”.

She appealed on 18 July, but Loubser upheld the original decision.
