POLOKWANE – According to police spokesperson Lt Col Moatshe Ngoepe, on Wednesday, 8 November, Kepper’s wife left him at their home in Myngenoegen to take their son to school.
When she came back, Kepper was nowhere to be found.
“At about 18:00, she received sms messages from his cellphone that he is going to be home late. At about 20:00 she called his cellphone to check how far is he but the cell phone was off,” explains Ngoepe.
After three days, she received another message from his cellphone stating he couldn’t come home and that he had found a job, without mentioning its address.
“A search was also done at his broader families, relatives and friends, but all in vain.”
