South Africans weigh in
Many netizens believed that the Pakistani national who was seen with the missing pre-teen was the key to finding her whereabouts.
@Clinton63096798 wondered:
“What was a 12-year-old doing with Abdul? If our leaders don't let these criminals in our country without them being vetted by Home Affairs, police would have had some details regarding Abdul's whereabouts; maybe that's his fake name. And maybe now he's in another area, blame our ANC.”
@SimangW_Sibande asked:
“Where is the Pakistani man? You should be having him booked for questioning.”
@zane_zanek786 suggested:
“After finding Abdul, lock up the parents as well.”
@Frank706951508 said:
“She had called her mom, and she's now in America.”
@Bundisto added:
“Foreigners again.”

Two days after his disappearance, his community took to the streets to demand that police do more to find the missing child.
