One year old Chante Langeveldt of Mitchells Plain who went missing from Day Care Centre has been found safe and unharmed.

She was reported missing on Tuesday after her mother left her in the care of her (mother) mentally ill cousin.

The mother went to relieve herself, when she came back the woman was gone with little Chante.

Baby Chante was found yesterday afternoon in Sir Lowry’s Pass where the woman lives.

Mitchell’s Plain police spokesperson Captain Rewyne Muller says the circumstances of her disappearance will be investigated.

Meanwhile, three year old Rajabu Nishimwe from Phillipi East was also found this morning.

He was reported missing last night after a long search of four hours by his parents.

Dessie Rechner of the Pink Ladies Organisation urges parents to act prompt when a child went missing.

“If your child is missing go to police immediately, get professional help and don’t run around trying to do it by yourself,” said Rechner.

This week, more than five children were reported missing across the city.
