The Mbense family is facing a tragic moment and is desperately looking for their missing loved one, Sello Henry Mbense (73). According to his wife, Sibongile, Sello went missing on June 30 at about 7 am and he left unnoticed.

At the time of his disappearance, he was wearing a blue overall, brown jersey and a navy jersey underneath the overalls. The missing man is bald and clean shaven.

His worried wife said, “My husband was diagnosed with a persistent disorder called Dementia which has caused brain damage. As a result, he suffers from memory loss and impaired reasoning.”



The Mbense family have tried seeking help from institutions like the Chris Hani Baragwanath Academic Hospital, the Baragwanath government mortuary, Kliptown Police Station, Sophiatown Police Station, Jabulani Hospital as well as a local radio station, Jozi FM.

The search is still underway and they are awaiting feedback after the assistance they received from these institutions. Reports of Sello being spotted by a passerby next to the Westgate Pikitup Selby Depot, are being investigated.

“My life is shattering right in front of my eyes, I am emotionally ill, we really miss him, he is one of the most important members of the family. Losing him would leave scars in our hearts because he is a very kind and humble person,” Sibongile added.
