Body of Godrich Gardee's missing daughter found
The search for the daughter of former EFF secretary-general Godrich Gardee has ended with her body being found.
Hillary Gardee went missing last Friday.
The 28-year-old was last seen shopping at a supermarket in Nelspruit.
She was with a three-year-old girl who was in her care at the time.
The child was found in the evening abandoned across the street from the family home.
In a statement on Tuesday, EFF spokesperson Leigh-Ann Mathys says Gardee's body was found dumped outside the city.
She says the Gardee family is distraught.

The party says the party is at a loss for words over Hillary's death and has sent condolences to the family.
"Hillary was an enthusiastic, kind and loving individual who had a passion for Information Technology. She was a student at the University of South Africa, studying IT part-time while running her own IT business.
"We mourn with the Gardee family and will provide a helping hand to ensure that her memory is preserved and she goes to her final resting place with dignity.
"The family at this time is still reeling from the terrible news of the loss of their child, and as such is not in a position to speak to the media or the public."
