JOSHLIN SMITH UPDATE: STILL MISSING
According to IOL, Joshlin Smith went missing from her home in Diazville in Saldana Bay while her mother, Kelly, was at work.

At the time of her disappearance, Joshlin was wearing a light blue T-shirt and light blue denim shorts.
A mass-scale search has been launched by the Saldana Bay SAPS, Disaster Risk Management personnel, town mayor Andre Truter, and community members.
In a Facebook post, Truter shared an update on Friday midday. It read: “Joshlin has still NOT been found…the [SAPS] investigative team is working non-stop to try and locate Joshlin. All leads are thoroughly checked and followed upon”.
Truter appealed to the public to refrain from spreading misinformation or making false police reports.
