Elizabeth Moselakgomo’s uncle praises eight-year-old daughter for raising alarm after mother’s disappearance
Elizabeth Moselakgomo’s eight-year-old daughter alerted relatives when her mother failed to return from her regular evening jog. Her body was later identified at a Germiston mortuary.
Eight-year-old Tsontso Moselakgomo was the first to alert her family that something was wrong when her mother, Elizabeth Moselakgomo, failed to return home from her nightly jog. The family is now devastated following the discovery of Moselakgomo's body. Elizabeth Moselakgomo, originally from Mpumalanga, worked as the centre manager at Festival Mall in Kempton Park.
Her uncle, Andries Moroka Matlala, praised his granddaughter's actions, describing her as "one of the people that, from work, she had a time to start jogging and the time to return back home." Matlala explained that Tsontso realised her mother had not returned home when it was already 6.30pm, and promptly informed the family of the situation.
The family has received support from a psychosocial team, who have been providing assistance to Tsontso since her mother's disappearance. The discovery of Moselakgomo's body has raised concerns about the deaths of at least four other women in the Kempton Park area, and police are investigating potential links between the cases.
