Search party for missing 80-year-old

A search party will begin tomorrow morning for the missing Jeff Clapperton.

The search party will begin at 08:00 tomorrow morning, at the Puma garage on the old Witbank road acting as the meeting point.

Everyone is welcomed to join the effort to find Jeff, with those having access to a drone urged to come and lend a hand.

The SAPS has had a dog unit searching the area the entire afternoon, but unfortunately they have been unable to find anything.

The roads in the area are in bad condition, so caution is advised to those taking part without bakkies.

This follows Jeff’s car being found on a gravel road on a farm road towards the Zaaikoek turn off, 20km outside eMalahleni.

For more information contact Piet Wassenaar on 082 870 4124.
