Police have announced a R350 000 reward for information on the whereabouts of three constables who went missing last week and anyone potentially responsible for their disappearance.
Police seek public’s help in locating three officers
South African Police Services reports state that people last saw Constables Linda Cebekhulu, 24, Keamogetswe Buys, 30, and Boipelo Senoge, 20, on April 23 at the Engen garage near the Grasmere toll plaza along the N1.
The three constables, who were off duty at the time, were driving a white VW Polo sedan (registration number JCL 401 FS) from Bloemfontein to Limpopo, where their deployment took place when they disappeared.
Their vehicle tracking system and cellphones have been unreachable since their last known location.
National Police Leadership Takes Action
On Sunday 27 April, national police commissioner Gen Fannie Masemola and deputy national commissioner for crime detection Lt-Gen Shadrack Sibiya met with the investigative team working on the case.
Police minister Senzo Mchunu expressed his grave concern over the missing officers.
“The national commissioner briefed us and assured us that they are following every possible lead. SAPS leadership has met with the families of the missing members and will continue to provide support and updates. Our thoughts and prayers are with them during this incredibly difficult time,” said Mchunu.
Call for Community Assistance
“We call on the community to assist law enforcement. No piece of information is too small. These are our colleagues, our sons and daughters, and we must act as one in ensuring their safe return. The national commissioner has announced that a reward of R350 000 is available for information which can lead to the whereabouts of our members and the individuals responsible for their disappearance,” Mchunu added.
Investigating officer Capt Chaacha Manga urges anyone with information to contact him on 082-527-6099.
