Magudumana argued that her arrest and deportation to South Africa were tantamount to abduction because SA authorities had no jurisdiction in the East African country, SABC News reported.
However, Judge Loubser ruled that Magudumana willingly got on the private jet the Department of Home Affairs chartered to bring her and convicted criminal Thabo Bester home.
EWN reported that Immigration lawyer Gary Eisenberg said if Magudumana takes that matter to the Supreme Court of Appeal, a judgement will be made based on what is already on record.
Eisenberg said:
"No new evidence can be introduced. There is not going to be an examination of witnesses at an appeal court level, and therefore you’re stuck with the record."
