“She only reported her missing to police on August 22.”

It seemed the mother had been hoping her daughter would return home of her own accord as it was not the first time that she had left, Naidu said.
However, this was the longest period she had been away.
“The SAPS family violence child protection and sexual offences unit is seeking the community’s assistance in tracing Lisakhanya.”
Anyone who can assist is asked to contact Constable Msuthukzi Nkwenkwezi on 082-302-5127 or Crime Stop 08600 10111 or their nearest police station.
