EMaxesibeni police seek public help to find a man wanted for questioning in a Mbizana rape and grooming case involving a 15-year-old girl.
According to police, the alleged offences occurred between January 2023 and September 2024. The suspect, 31-year-old Luzuko Khutyiswayo, is a former educator and is believed to have important information that could assist in the ongoing investigation.
Authorities have confirmed that Khutyiswayo was last seen in Johannesburg, Gauteng. Efforts to trace him have so far been unsuccessful, putting pressure on  the Family Violence, Child Protection and Sexual Offences Unit to call on community members to come forward with any information that could help locate him.
Investigating officer Detective Captain Peterson Kanzi is urging anyone with knowledge of Khutyiswayo’s whereabouts to make contact directly via 071 352 4530 or 065 657 7140 (WhatsApp).
The public can also provide anonymous tip-offs through the MySAPS App or by calling SAPS Crime Stop on 08600 10111.
Police have emphasised the importance of community cooperation in cases involving crimes against children, and they are working to ensure that justice is served in this matter.
