Eight-year-old Abirah Dekhta who was kidnapped about a week ago, from her scholar transport on her way to school in Rylands, has been reunited with her family.
PICTURE: SUPPLIEDThis was confirmed by Western Cape police on Monday
evening, who said they found the girl in a shack in Town Two, Khayelitsha.
"The
intelligence-led integrated operation saw forces descending on the township
where the young girl was found. She has since been sent to a doctor for a
medical assessment," said Sergant Wesley Twigg.
Twigg added that no arrests has been made as yet, but SAPS
detectives are questioning several individuals in the hopes of successful
arrests.
Western Cape's Police Oversight & Community Safety MEC,
Reagen Allen, welcomed the news that Dekhta was found 'safe and unharmed.'
"As of [Monday night], SAPS and law enforcement
agencies were still investigating the circumstances around her disappearance.
Various individuals are being questioned and I trust we will soon be able to
get to the bottom of this matter. I would urge communities to continue to keep
Abirah and her family in their prayers and thoughts during this difficult
time."
