Kidnapped Cape Town woman rescued by police task team: A woman allegedly abducted from her workplace on Friday has been reunited with her family after Western Cape police traced her and arrested five suspects.

Brig Novela Potelwa said this was due to the concerted efforts of a multidisciplinary provincial anti-kidnapping task team.“The 31-year-old woman was kidnapped at Parow Industria on the evening of June 2 after she left a family business where she works. Her vehicle was later discovered abandoned at NY 99 in Gugulethu,” Potelwa said.

“The arrested suspects between the ages of 25 and 32 face kidnapping, hijacking, human trafficking and extortion charges. They are expected to appear in court in due course.”
