WESTERN CAPE. – Denise Ellie Lewis-Swart, the woman who was allegedly abducted last week at the De Dekke shopping centre in Groot-Brakrivier, has been found unharmed in Richmond in the Northern Cape.
Captain Christopher Spies, police spokesperson, told Nuusflits that the investigation led police to Richmond, where Denise was traced. The people with whom she was found have not been arrested.
Police called for public assistance after Denise was allegedly abducted by four men at the shopping centre on Thursday afternoon, 29 October. She was reportedly there to buy groceries and takeaway coffee. According to information shared earlier by Missing Person South Africa, her family claimed that she was forced with violence into a white GAC M8 Master vehicle, after which she was driven away.
Captain Spies earlier confirmed that the circumstances surrounding her disappearance are being investigated and that an abduction case file has been opened for further investigation. The Western Cape police management has thanked everyone who assisted with the search and made resources available.
