Dawny is survived by her beautiful five-year-old daughter, Ndalo.
THE body of missing woman, Dawny Philile Mhlongo (30), was found dumped in the Isipingo area on Thursday, 28 March.
Dawny was reported missing at Ntuzuma Police Station on Thursday morning, 28 March after she didn’t arrive home from work the night before.
“She sustained multiple gunshot wounds on her head and body,” said KZN police spokesperson Lieutenant Colonel Thulani Zwane. “A case of murder
was opened at Isipingo Police Station for investigation.”
A relative, who wished to remain anonymous, explained that Dawny never returned home on Wednesday evening from her workplace at Unilever in Durban North.
“I spoke to her at 6.30pm when she was in an Uber on her way home,” said the relative. “She didn’t arrive that night so the next day (Thursday) we went reported her missing at the police station. Only on Monday, 1 April we were notified about her death, saying that she had been found on Thursday, 28 March by the Isipingo police. My father then went to identify her body.”
Dawny leaves behind a beautiful five-year-old daughter, Ndalo.
“Dawny was young, vibrant, passionate about life, ago-getter, full of energy and she excelled in whatever she was doing,” said the relative. “She was always laughing, very self-driven and most of all she loved her daughter dearly.”
Dawny’s funeral will take place this Saturday, 6 April.
