The body of 75 year old Nozilile Adelaide Jekana who was reported missing two weeks ago, has been found.

Hikers at the back of Constantia Mountain made the discovery yesterday, between two beacons.

The body of the deceased was recovered from the mountain with the assistance of Metro Rescue Services and identified by family members this morning.

She went missing from her home in Mandela Park, Hout Bay and suffered from Alzheimer's.

An extensive search and investigation was done, but with no success at the time.

Hout Bay Police have opened an inquest case-docket for investigation.

No foul play is suspected at this stage, but an autopsy will be conducted to determine the cause of death.

Further police investigations are underway.
