POLOKWANE – The prompt reaction and true dedication by the South African Police Service in Limpopo has shown vast results lately during the recovery of reported missing persons, says police spokesperson, Lt Col Moatshe Ngoepe.
Mohlahlodi, who was reported missing on 13 April 2018, after leaving her home without notifying anyone, was found on 22 May around the Penina Park area.
“Every time a person is reported missing, the case is treated with much sensitivity and as a matter of urgency. The relevant role players including the police search and rescue unit, in conjunction with members of the community at large work beyond the call of duty until the recovery whether dead or alive,’ Ngoepe concluded.
