A Zimbabwean woman has been missing for about two weeks in Kempton Park, and her family is desperately asking the public for help.
Aisha Gracious Nkomo was living in Pretoria and working at a lodge in Kempton Park when she vanished. Those close to her say she left her phone charging and walked out with three men before anyone could account for her whereabouts. No one has seen her since.
Search hospitals and police stations
In an emotional video circulating on social media, a person close to Aisha describes the lengths her loved ones have gone to in trying to find her. The family has visited police stations, mortuaries and areas around Kempton Park, including near Compton Park and Apple Foods, searching for any trace of her. Despite their efforts, they have found no leads.

The person speaking also urges the public to avoid spreading rumours or sharing unverified information about Aisha, warning that false posts are causing additional pain to an already distressed family.
Worry grows over Kempton Park women's deaths
Aisha's disappearance has taken on a more alarming dimension given the recent deaths of several women in and around Kempton Park. According to reports by The South African, authorities are investigating those cases, and while there is no confirmed link to Aisha's situation, the timing has sharpened the sense of urgency felt by her community.
Appeals for information have spread widely through Zimbabwean community groups across South Africa, with many sharing her photograph in the hope that someone will recognise her.
Anyone with information about Aisha's whereabouts is urged to contact her family directly or report to the South African Police Service.
