"South African 'Facebook Rapist' Arrested in Tanzania After Faking Death"

Thabo Bester, a South African convicted murderer who faked his death to escape from prison, has been arrested in Tanzania following a two-week manhunt. Bester, dubbed the "Facebook Rapist," was found guilty of raping at least two women and killing one. He was sentenced to life imprisonment in 2012, but reports surfaced last year that he had died in a fire in his prison cell. However, an investigation showed that the body found burned beyond recognition in the cell was not his. Bester was apprehended with his girlfriend and a Mozambican national believed to have assisted them to cross borders and evade law enforcement authorities.
