Parents Thabsile Dlamini and Mxolisi Ngwane remain hopeful and believe that their daughter is still out there, and stipulated that whoever has her needs to return her home. A reward of R40,000 is offered for the return of the missing child.
The three-year-old was last seen outside church on 31 December, 2017. She was playing with other children, however, when her mother looked for her at about 9am, the little girl was missing. An extensive search by police and community members proved fruitless.
Siphesihle was wearing a pink dress with white stripes and white pump shoes. She was allegedly spotted in the vicinity of a tavern in Slangeni Ward, Amandawe.
“We still have no leads,” said the family’s spokesperson, Linda Venton. “We are still collecting funds to try and get some answers. We are desperate at the moment and are about to launch another pamphlet drive,” she said.
‘Help Find Missing Siphesihle’ Facebook page run by Nicole Smuts, has been rallying all efforts to raise funds that will continue paying the investigators. As little as R10 pays towards keeping investigators hard at work on the road to finding the missing child. Investigator Brad Nathanson, who proved instrumental in finding Siam Lee’s kidnapper, is working on this case.
