A year and nine months after four young cousins vanished from their home in Ntabankulu, Eastern Cape, while the Hawks say they have no leads in the case.

It has been a year and nine months since four cousins - Oyintando, Thabisile, Thabile and Sive Siganga - disappeared from their home in Ntabankulu, Eastern Cape, and the Hawks say they still have no leads that could help bring them home.

Their family continues to endure the pain of waiting, hoping the children will be found alive and brought home.

The four cousins, all from the same family, vanished from their home in Ntabankulu in November 2024.

IOL reached out to the Hawks in the Eastern Cape on Wednesday, inquiring about the progress of the investigation since the case was transferred to the unit, and whether investigators had made any significant breakthroughs or identified any persons of interest.
