Happy ending for sisters

Veronica Ndemushakena, Linda Ndemushakena and Fransina

A two-month search for two sisters from Namibia ended in relief on Monday 30 September when Linda and Fransina Ndemushakena were reunited at U-turn's Claremont Homeless Service Centre.

Linda (25) arrived in Cape Town in early July to visit her sister, who had been living in Hout Bay.

The pair planned to return home a week later but were separated while looking for transport in Bellville.

Linda panicked when she saw a police vehicle and ran. Minutes later she was chased by a white car and lost sight of her sister.

Two days later, Mowbray police officers found Linda exhausted and hungry. She was taken to U-turn's Powerhouse safe space in Claremont.
