IOL - To Catch A Child Killer

Tazne's tragic story reminds us of the importance of protecting our children and bringing justice to those who prey on the innocent.

The disappearance and murder of Tazne van Wyk not only devastated her family but also shook the community to its core. It revealed the harsh reality of the dangers that children in low-income areas face, and it exposed the inadequacies of the justice system that had released a known child rapist and murderer back into the community. The story of Tazne's disappearance and the community's response to it shows that in the face of tragedy, people can come together and find hope in even the face of poverty and hopelessness.
