Potelwa believes a breakthrough in the case is imminent. 


"The investigation saw the team of detectives visiting several places within the West Coast town and interviewing several other persons. 


"The search for Joslin brought individuals, NGOs, community activists, police officials, neighbourhood watches and representatives from different spheres of government together in the quest to find the missing girl. For days they searched identified vast areas in Saldanha Bay.
