The investigating officer in the case WO Peter Mbonani said Vandekeere was apparently last seen at his home in Brentwood Park, on Saturday, September 7.
Vandekeere had been released on bail of R20 000.
‘‘I am very cross and disappointed,’’ said Chantelle’s mother, Suzette Barnard, this morning on her way home from the court.
‘‘We told the court he was a flight risk from day one.’’
She believes the accused has fled the country as he has ties in Belgium.
Anyone with information regarding Vandekeere’s whereabouts can contact WO Mbonani on 082 301 2276.
