UPDATE: Search for missing baby continues across KZN
Updated | By ECR Newswatch
It's been 24-hours since one-month-old Siwaphiwe Mbambo was abducted following a hijacking in the CBD - but despite ongoing search and rescue efforts across the province, there are still no signs of the missing baby.
This morning, police search teams, medics, security companies and concerned citizens - gathered on Donovan Road in Montclair, south of Durban.
This is where the white Toyata Yaris - which Siwaphiwe was in - was found abandoned yesterday afternoon.
Several search and rescue teams - including the uMlazi, Pietermaritzburg, and Empangeni K9 Units - returned there today for another thorough check of the bush next to the road - but it turned up nothing.
Officials on the scene also confirmed that three houses in the area were searched.
There are currently six active searches underway across Durban, to find the child.
Meanwhile, a reward of R250 000 is now being offered to anyone with information leading to the whereabouts of baby Siwaphiwe, and her abductors.
