A 23-year-old man from Eersterust has been missing since Saturday, February 12.

Keanu Williams was last seen at his grandmother’s home in Belhar Avenue in Eersterust.

Grandmother, Shella Marvey is worried sick.

“I have been driving up and down the streets every day since his disappearance, but he is nowhere to be found.

“I have been to various hospitals in the area with the hopes that I would find him, but it was of no avail,” she said.

Marvey added that it has been seven weeks since she last saw her grandson.

“I have been taking care of Keanu since he was born. He was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and I assume he has not taken his medication.

“I have printed posters of my grandson that I have put up with the hopes that someone will be able to assist with information,” the devastated grandmother said.
