Kempton Park man goes missing – family needs help
Ramanand was last seen on Saturday morning, November 9 on his way to work, at 08:00.
A Kempton Park family is urgently seeking help in locating Jerome Ramanand, who has been missing since November 9.
Ramanand was last seen that morning as he was heading to work.
His wife, Rene, said she dropped her husband off at the Mayibuye traffic lights at around 08:00, where he was to catch a taxi to his workplace.

Jerome works as a block man at a butchery in Midrand.
At around 17:00 the same day, Rene received a text from Jerome asking what was prepared for supper, which was the last communication they had.
“He never returned home, and his phone and WhatsApp messages went unanswered,” said Rene.
“At first, I thought maybe he had gone to a friend’s place and would return on Sunday.”
However, when Rene contacted her husband’s workplace, she learned that while he had been at work, he left and never returned.
The family has since reported him missing to Norkem Park SAPS.
Jerome is described as 1.75m tall, with hazel brown eyes, a light complexion, and tattoos on his arms and hands.

“Our family is extremely emotional and worried,” said Rene.
“We want Jerome back home safe. We love him and miss him dearly.”
Rene added that Jerome’s daughter, Taina, misses him, as does his sister-in-law, Kris, who searches for him daily.
His family in Durban, especially his mother, is also deeply concerned about his whereabouts.
A missing person’s case has been opened at Norkem Park SAPS.
Warrant Officer Barbara-Anne Ferreira, spokesperson for Norkem Park SAPS, confirmed the case.
Anyone with information about Jerome Ramanand’s whereabouts is urged to contact Norkem Park SAPS at 071 675 6802/3 or 011 960 0348.
