The Kroonstad SAPS is seeking public assistance to locate 25-year-old Thabo Mashea, who disappeared without a trace.

Mashea, from Seisoville, Maokeng, Kroonstad, was last seen on Friday, 11 July, at approximately 15:05 hitchhiking to Welkom on the N1 highway, 5km outside Kroonstad.

Details about the clothing he was wearing is unknown.

Sgt. Santho Sefadi is leading the investigation and urgently requests community cooperation.

“Every piece of information, no matter how small, could be crucial in reuniting Mashea with his family,” says Sefadi.

Anyone with information about Mashea’s whereabouts is encouraged to contact Sefadi on 082 049 9400 or call Crime Stop at 08600 10111. Anonymous tips can be submitted via the MySAPS App.
