On Saturday May 28 2016, 4-month-old baby girl Esethu Nokwethemba Myeza was taken from her 19-year-old mother, Nontokozo Myeza. The mother was in a queue to withdraw money at an ATM when a woman she knows took the baby to hold her. The lady and baby disappeared.

The suspect was traced near Greytown in the rural area of KwaZulu-Natal and arrested. The baby was found unharmed and reunited with her mother. The suspect appeared in the Vosloorus Magistrates Court today, June 2.
