Western Cape Community Safety MEC Lennet Max said child abuse has reached crisis point in the province. The MEC expressed his shock following the funeral of Nadine Janties who was muredered two weeks ago. He said this after visiting the mother of a three year old toddler who was found murdered in Khayelitsha on Saturday evening.

“It is obvious that the Western Cape is leading in disappearance and murdering of children”

He said the government of the Western Cape is worried about the current situation.

The police cannot arrest the suspects because in most cases the victim is killed by someone close to her.

“I have called all communities, especially women and children to report any suspicious actions by any man to the police without any delay, so that we can intervene in time to prevent another killng in the Western Cape.”
