Minister Allen to provide an update on Joslin Smith

1 March 2024

Today, Western Cape Minister of Police Oversight and Community Safety, Reagen Allen, will provide an update into the investigation of missing 7-year-old Joslin Smith. This young girl worryingly has been missing for almost two weeks. 

Minister Reagen Allen said: “Our collective aim is to ensure that Joslin is found unharmed and safely returned home. I am deeply alarmed at the manner in which this tragic matter has been politicised. Individuals and groups should refrain from this practice. It is highly immoral and insensitive to the friends, family, loved ones and the wider community. While I like many are focusing our collective efforts on reuniting Joshlin with her family; we continue to support other families who have missing children or family members. And we are partnering with law enforcement agencies to reunite them with their loved ones.”

Minister Allen will be joined by the Saldanha Bay Executive Mayor, Andre Truter and senior SAPS personnel.
