The resident who called the police believing to have seen the missing Nikita Bekker (14), in Primrose, has contacted the Germiston City News.<\/p>\n
He told the GCN his 17-year-old daughter said she had seen the girl and that they had called 10111 to report the matter.<\/p>
The Primrose SAPS responded and this led to them picking up Anika Doussy (GCN, February 20).<\/p>\n
Doussy was taken to the resident’s home and the man told the GCN he thought she looked like the missing girl.<\/p>
\u201cHaving had a sister go missing many years ago, I was only doing this for her own good,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cShe was in the back of the van and I apologised to her, saying: ‘If you are the girl I am concerned about you’.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was only looking after the missing girl\u2019s best interests.\u201d<\/p>\n
He also claimed that while the police were at his house with Doussy they were not abusive towards her.<\/p>\n
The next day, the man added, Doussy and a male companion returned to his house and threatened him, telling him that they were going to sue him for the R200 income Doussy had lost.<\/p>\n
\u201cI believe I did the right thing by contacting the police and, to me, she looked like the missing girl,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
