According to spokesperson for Unchain Our Children, Carina Bam, Kruger was last seen leaving his place of safety en route to school.

Bam said he allegedly was picked up by an unknown person driving a white vehicle.

“Unfortunately, we don’t have the vehicle’s model or the identity of the person who picked him up,” Bam stated.

Kruger is described as a slender-built male, 1.67m tall, weighing 55kg, with blond hair and blue eyes.

He was last seen wearing grey school trousers, a grey school shirt, and black school shoes.

“It is suspected that he might be in the Krugersdorp area,” she said.

“We are actively looking for him, and anyone with information should come forward.”

Bam urges anyone with knowledge of Kruger’s whereabouts to contact her at 071 243 3065.
