Missing Meghan Cremer’s body found in sand mine

The body of 30-year-old Cape Town horse rider Meghan Cremer has been found. Her body was found on Thursday morning in a sand mine in Philippi.

Western Cape police spokesperson Lieutenant Colonel Andrè Traut said Cremer was last seen leaving a farm in Philippi at around 6.24pm on Saturday.

On Tuesday, Western Cape police arrested three suspects who were found with a stolen vehicle registered to Cremer. The three suspects, aged 27, 34 and 35, have been charged with illegal possession of a presumably stolen vehicle and will appear in the Athlone Magistrate’s Court on Thursday.

Cremer did not return home and the alarm was raised further when she didn’t arrive at work.

Her family had appealed for help on social media: “If anyone has seen her or has any information that could help us find her, please get in touch with me ASAP,” her brother Paul Cremer pleaded on social media.
