Search for missing Malukazi girl (6) intensifies
Updated | By Tamasha Khanyi
The search has intensified for a six-year-old Isipingo girl who went missing four days ago.
Zekhethelo Luphahlele was last seen near her home in Malukazi, south of Durban, on Thursday, wearing a white top and a pair of green leggings.
Dawn Gounden, who's with Renegade Search and Rescue, says her mother went to work at around six o’clock in the morning.
When she returned later that day, little Zekhethelo was nowhere to be found.

Gounden visited the family on Sunday.
"The manner in which she was taken could probably be earlier before the children are all awake and the community is busy with their daily routines and activities,” she said.
“It’s affected everyone in that community. Clearly, you could see 'your child is my child approach'. They are all gathered together."
She says search teams are doing everything they can to find the child.
"We will proceed with searches; police are going to do the same and we hope to bring closure soon for her."
