Police have urged the public to make 100% sure of their facts, before distributing letters.
This follows after a letter was allegedly sent out by a local primary school, dated September 7 and since then the letter went viral.
The letter reads:
“The SAPS have warned us that child smugglers are paying an amount of R2000 to drug addicts who are used to kidnap learners from local schools. Please warn your children to walk in groups, await their transport within the school premises and avoid talking to strangers.”
