Sorry to have to rope you in on this but is there any database or method to confirm whether a prisoner has been committed to a correctional facility?
There is no online system where you can check, if you know someone working at any correctional facility or community corrections they can check the system. I'm just wondering if he will still be using the same prison number he had in his previous incarceration since they do not normally allocate you a new one. Even so though, if they did allocate him a new one, you could still on that system check on his name and surname and would get the details when he came in.

So... hypothetically... how difficult would it be to use the prison underground message network via JHB to send a message to the most violent offender in Estcourt offering a family member of their choice R10k if that violent offender (let say a lifer with no hope of parole) were to bliksem the kark out of somebody in lockup?

Speaking hypothetically of course.
There is a lot of desperate people in prison, I'm sure there would be people that would be willing to do that, but you will get a lot of "willing" guys just so they can scam you out of your money as well. The way he will be housed though, no normal inmate will get close to the unit he will be living in. This rubbish that they mentioned on the news of getting housed with other old people, there is no such units in prison, you live with the rest of the population, but coming to Zuma, he will be housed in a unit where people do not have access to. Whether that is for security or to hide special privileges we would not know. Normally inmates are not going to have any access to him, and the ones having access will be the guys on their way out, to limit his risk.

Wait wait... I didn't have any particular person in mind. Cough*** Just asking hypothetically if it could be done. Cough***

So it can... Hmmm.

It should fall under the general scope of access to information so any political party or any organisation with influence can get the information, you also can as an individual but we all know how that would pan out.

So High Court doesn't have to decide anything tomorrow
it would still be good for the High Court to smack down Mpofu's BS with extreme prejudice, award costs and put this jurisdiction fruit loops strategy to bed forever

this may be one of the better facilities that Zuma could have ended up in
regardless of the state of the facilities, he would want to have a firm grip on the soap in the shower

Schrödinger's Zuma
well he's not exactly a cat, but he sure is a pu$$y!
