The family of Athandwa Mathe, a child born in 2018 from Ngonyameni, Umlazi, is pleading for justice following the childโs alleged killing. ๐๐ข
According to the family, Athandwa was allegedly seen on Sunday morning being dragged or led by a person towards a forested area. ๐ณ๐ถ๐ฝโโ๏ธ
The family says they immediately began searching for the child. ๐๐ญ After approximately three hours, Athandwa was reportedly found dead in the area. ๐๐๏ธ
The family is now raising serious concerns about the progress of the investigation. ๐๐จ They allege that the person who was seen with the child is known and that CCTV/video footage may show the child with that individual. ๐ฅ๐
