In a statement, detectives say the two girls, aged six and 14, were kidnapped by a known suspect in the area last week Thursday. 


KZN police spokesperson Thembeka Mbele says the following day, a body of the six-year-old girl was found.


Mbele says it appears the child had been strangled and had assault injuries.

"The circumstances surrounding the incident are still being investigated. There was a person who was taken in for questioning, but he hasn't been arrested yet. Hence there are no arrests. Police are still investigating."
