A toddler who was allegedly sold to a child trafficking syndicate was found yesterday afternoon at a house in Kraaifontein.

Police spokesperson Warrant Officer November Filander says the one-year-old boy, Ovayo Maxetuka from Khayelitsha, was found after police received an anonymous phone call on his whereabouts.

“When police arrived at the address, he was in the care of the suspect’s neighbour and the 41 year old female suspect, later handed herself over to police at the Kraaifontein police station.

“She will appear in the Khayelitsha Magistrate’s Court on charges of child trafficking,” said Filander.
