He met with residents after nine-year-old Sadia Sukhraj was shot dead there two weeks ago.  

And with today's visit, he's keeping his promise to return and respond to their concerns.  

Meanwhile, police are still looking for the third man wanted in connection with little Sadia's death.

32-year-old, Sibonelo Mkhize was arrested at the scene and another suspect was killed.  

A third, however, escaped. Cele said at his last visit, that police would have him in custody within 72 hours but provincial spokesperson Jay Naicker says he's still on the run.  

Police have declined to comment on naming the person who fired the fatal shot that killed Sadia. Naicker says they're still waiting for test results.

"The third suspect is still on the run from police. All attempts are being made to ensure that he is arrested and brought to book. Once the result of the forensics, ballistics and post-mortem become available - they will be presented to the senior public prosecutor. Once that evidence is presented in court, it will then become public knowledge," The police's Jay Naicker said.
