Noor Karriem, the owner of Giant Hyper in Epping, Cape Town, was reportedly kidnapped on Monday morning, a family friend has confirmed.

"We are trying to get to the bottom of it," Nazier Parker told News24 on Monday.

"I'm just trying to speak to the family members. I am not sure about the event itself."

Parker said everybody was trying to gather information on what happened at the store earlier in the day.

The head office of the wholesaler told News24 it also did not have any further details on what might have happened to Karriem.
Western Cape police confirmed a kidnapping case had been opened.

This been South Africa, perhaps the forum should have a dedicated kidnaping thread. On the other hand, judging by the total absence of comments, in South Africa kidnapings are more or less normal. Nobody cares. How sad.
