In similar news, Briefly.co.za previously reported on a Durban mom who had reunited with her son after 34 years apart. According to reports, her children were taken by the Pinetown based child welfare system when they were only babies.
In a recent interview, 56-year-old Kogie Perumal explained that she had left her then Motala Farm home for her job as a machine operator at a local carpet factory. When she returned she was met with the terrible news that the children had been taking by the welfare service who had allegedly received a tip-off that the children were being abused.
After trying desperately to locate her kids, Kogie reluctantly gave up, remarried, and had two other children. Deciding to try again, Kogie reached out to news publications with her story - and this worked out in her favour.
