Hawks renew search for 4 missing Eastern Cape siblings

Investigators are appealing for help to locate four children who vanished from their home in Ntabankulu more than 18 months ago.

The Hawks have renewed their appeal to the public for information on the whereabouts of four children who disappeared from their home more than 18 months ago, reports South Coast Herald.

Siblings Sive Siganga (7), Oyintando Siganga (4), Thabsile Siganga (4) and Thabile Siganga (4) were last seen playing in the yard of their family home in Ntabankulu (in the Wild Coast Region of the Eastern Cape) on November 10, 2024.

Their disappearance led to the opening of a kidnapping case and the involvement of the Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation (DPCI). Despite extensive investigations, including intelligence-driven enquiries, inter-provincial follow-ups and community engagements, the children have not been found.

The Hawks have called on traditional leaders, community organisations, schools, faith-based groups and members of the public to assist by sharing information that could help investigators.

Hawks spokesperson Warrant Officer Ndiphiwe Mhlakuvana said investigators remain committed to finding the children and urged anyone with information, no matter how insignificant it may seem, to come forward.

Anyone with information can contact Colonel Raymond Buys on 082 301 1113 or Warrant Officer Norton Ndabambi on 082 559 4613.

Information can also be reported anonymously through the MySAPS App or at any police station.
