Lani’s Arrest and Release
Lani was apprehended by security personnel while trying to enter the Helen Joseph Hospital through its main entrance on Sunday night. The Gauteng health department reported that he attempted to escape through a window in the hospital restroom after requesting to use it.
Once security personnel realized his escape attempt, they called for backup, leading to Lani’s capture and subsequent arrest by the police.
In a surprising turn of events, Dumisani Mabunda managed to secure his client’s release by having the charges of identity fraud and impersonating a medical doctor dropped at the Johannesburg magistrate’s court. Despite being scheduled for a court appearance, Lani emerged from the building on crutches, accompanied by his lawyer, who informed journalists that the criminal charges filed by the Gauteng health department and Dr Sanele Zingelwa, the doctor Lani allegedly impersonated, had been dismissed due to insufficient evidence, as stated by the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA).
