ARMY ASSISTS SEARCH FOR TODDLER

A THREE-day search in the Western Cape to find a little girl who was abducted from her parent’s Kuils River flat at the weekend gained momentum on Tuesday when police called in the army for assistance. Four-year-old Renata Ismail disappeared from her mother’s bed while relatives were watching television in the lounge on Saturday night. Less than three weeks ago Renata’s father, Shannon, was seriously injured in a car accident. He is still in a coma in hospital.
