Good evening respected Social Workers.
I would like to report a case of children whom I think are on hostage. They are more than 10. Their ages vary from 2/3 to 12 years, boys and girls. Upon asking them, they confirmed that they came here around January 2024 and their parents don't know that they are staying here.
They further confirmed that they don't go to school but they are being taught the Somalian/Indian religion on the site. They even wash the blankets of these guys.
I am worried because these children might be the ones who were reported missing.
I will appreciate your assistance on this matter ASAP.
Their Location: Mapuzi, Coffee Bay, Mqanduli, 5080, on Shop "KWA SAM" next to KSD TVET COLLEGE MAPUZI CAMPUS, you'll find them in the white house within the shop, on the door next to the green tank or tap.
