City Power has confirmed its employee who was allegedly hijacked on Wednesday in Lenasia Ext 4 while a team of technicians were busy on site has been found.
The entity said the two colleagues he was with were receiving counselling. “The technician has been found and is unharmed,” said City Power spokesperson Isaac Mangena.
A team was attacked by a group of armed criminals who hijacked their white Toyota Hilux GD6. The entity said it could not divulge more details surrounding the matter as it was now a case handled by the police.
Mangena said initial reports suggested, due to the confusion and panic caused by the distressing events, that the employee was kidnapped. “The two technicians presumed that their colleague was taken by the hijackers as they could not locate him after the incident.”
He added that the vehicle was found in Lawley, Kokotela settlement, at midnight.
