While Tazne van Wyk's family and friends cling to the belief that she is still alive, a neighbourhood watch group urged parents that dropping and picking up young children from school is one measure to ensure their safety. CapeTimesSA

Cape Town – While Tazne van Wyk's family and friends cling to the belief that she is still alive, a neighbourhood watch group urged parents that dropping and picking up young children from school is one measure to ensure their safety.

Sadeeka Valentine, of the almost completely female Blomvlei Neighbourhood Watch in Hanover Park, said on Wednesday: "It will also help if we all were to look out for each other's children." The arrest of a 54-year-old as a person of interest in the disappearance of the 8-year-old Tazne van Wyk, from Ravensmead in Elsies River, brought short-lived joy for her family.

After a more than week-long search, he was finally nabbed in Cradock, Eastern Cape, but Tazne is yet to be located. The girl's mother, Carmen van Wyk, told the Daily Voice the suspect's arrest has sparked fears that Tazne is dead, but she believes her child is alive.
