Two boys go “missing” in Fisantekraal

Missing Children South Africa and Bambanani volunteers have embarked on a search for two boys, aged four and five, who reportedly went missing on Saturday afternoon in Fisantekraal, Durbanville. The boys, who are friends, are believed to have been playing outside when they disappeared.

“It is still unclear what they were wearing at the time they disappeared or how it happened. We don’t have much detail to go on but we can confirm that there is a search for the two boys,” says Missing Children South Africa’s Pieter Boshof.

However, when Bush Radio News phoned the local police station they said that they were unaware of two boys who went missing on Saturday, and that a missing person's report had not been filed for anyone fitting the discription of either child.

If any member of the public spots two boys of that age, who are believed to be lost, call Missing Children South Africa's Helpline on 072 MISSING or 072 6477 464.
