Christmas without Khy'ree: A mom's plea for justice

December 19, 2025

|

Cape Argus

“CHRISTMAS will never be the same again because I will never see my child again.”

- MURRAY SWART

These are the painful words of Jolene Jordaan, the mother of three-year-old Khy’ree Jordaan who was fatally injured after being hit by a car allegedly driven by an off-duty City law enforcement official.

Jordaan said the approach of Christmas has intensified her grief as she prepares to spend the festive season without her son while the suspect accused of killing him remains free nearly six weeks after the incident.

“Christmas will never be the same again because I will never see my child again. I will have to go to the grave if I want to be close to him, while the dirty scum can live comfortably, can enjoy Christmas, can drink and do coke,” she wrote via her Facebook account.

Khy’ree was struck on Alard Road in Clarke's Estate, Elsies River, on November 9. Police registered a culpable homicide case after the toddler later died in hospital.
