A man who was dubbed the Facebook rapist over a decade ago has died in prison.
The 33-year-old Thabo Bester was found dead in his single cell at the Mangaung Correctional Centre in Bloemfontein on Wednesday.
A spokesperson for Correctional Services Singabakho Nxumalo says there was a fire in Bester's cell but the cause must still be investigated.
Bester was dubbed the Facebook rapist because he used the social network site to lure women throughout the country.
He raped and robbed two aspirant models and was accused of the raped and murder of a 26-year-old model Nomfundu Tyulu.
