Help find missing Mamelodi man
“We are appealing to the public to assist with the information that could lead to his successful tracing,” said Mashiloane.
Family and friends are searching for a 22-year-old man who recently went missing in Mamelodi.
Mandisa Malope was last seen leaving his home in extension 17 in the Far East Mamelodi on 11 July.
His brother, Special Malope said Mandisa was mentally challenged and the family was concerned about his whereabouts.
Mandisa was last seen around 11:30, when he was on his way back from the hospital for medical check-ups.
“My brother said he wanted to go out for fresh air around the area and he never returned. He was wearing a blue Identity jersey, cream pants and white sneakers.
“We have searched everywhere for him around the community, mortuary, relatives and hospital. This is the first time my brother went missing and we are scared that something bad might have happened to him, especially now, that the country is on lockdown,” Special said.
He said the family was concerned about his brother’s health because he was supposed to take his medication almost every day.
Malope family pleaded with their brother to return home because live was not the same without him.
Police spokesperson Constable Lethabo Mashiloane said the family immediately reported him missing after searching in vain for Mandisa.
“We are appealing to the public to assist with the information that could lead to his successful tracing,” said Mashiloane.
