Hunt on for Delft meisie
GONE: Linathi Titshala GONE: Linathi Titshala
The hunt for a nine-year-old girl who has been missing for four days has intensified as various community organisations led by the SAPS, Metro Police and the Western Cape Missing Persons Unit comb Thubelitsha in Delft.
Linathi Titshala left her grandmother’s home about 10am on Sunday morning to go to her own hokkie, two doors down. She has not been seen since.
She celebrated her birthday the day before at her family’s home in Cork Tree Street.
For three days the family has searched tirelessly for the bubbly little girl without finding any trace of her.
Police spokesman, Captain FC van Wyk, has appealed to the public to join the search.
