A Pretoria woman, Celeste van Aswegen, is still missing after disappearing in Garsfontein on 21 June with her dog, Shadow. Have you seen her?
Concern is mounting as Celeste van Aswegen, a Pretoria woman, remains missing days after she was last seen in Garsfontein on 21 June 2025.
Celeste was reportedly en route to Lanseria after visiting her ex-husband when she disappeared. She was driving a 2014 sea-grey Volkswagen Amarok double-cab bakkie, registration number DD86HXGP.
Her beloved black dog, Shadow, was also with her in the vehicle.
She was last seen wearing pale casual pants and a short-sleeved shirt. Despite growing community efforts and involvement from Renegades Search and Rescue, there has been no confirmed sighting of her since that day.
A missing person case has been opened with the Garsfontein SAPS, and police are urging anyone with information—no matter how small—to come forward.
