Magudumana claims she was abducted in Tanzania by the South African Police Services.
Although the court found that her deportation was a disguised extradition, ultimately the High court ruled Magudumana agreed to return to South Africa.
A date for the hearing is still being finalised.
Magudumana is facing several charges related to Facebook rapist Thabo Bester's elaborate escape from a Mangaung prison.
