Parents suspect a neighbour involved in baby's abduction

The parents of a nine-week-old baby girl, abducted last week, suspect a neighbour was involved with the disappearance of their daughter.

Yolanda Yoba was taken from her parents home in Makaza, Khayelitsha last Thursday by a woman claiming to be a social worker.

The baby's father, Lucas, says two ladies visited them last Monday saying they were social workers from the Red Cross. The one lady then visited again on Wednesday and Thursday.

Lucas added that a neighbour or community member had been watching his family and was involved in Yolanda’s kidnapping as his home was situated away from the road making it fairly difficult to reach.

Yolanda is the Yoba’s only child.

Police are currently on the lookout for a woman with red dyed hair and a front gold tooth. According to a daily paper the woman was last seen in the Stellenbosh area wearing blue jeans and a white t-shirt.

Anyone with information should contact the Family Violence, Child Protection and Sexual Offences Unit on (021) 981 3162 or CrimeStop on 08600 10111.
