A 10-months old baby was kidnapped in an estate on Saturday morning 6.45 am by their 2-weeks old nanny, right under the parents nose. Very well behaved lady indeed, named Victoria. This family had been married for 6 years and this happens to be their first baby. As special as this baby is, the mum and dad are usually always around or at least a relative, the nanny does not go out with her alone, even within the compound. But she still succeeded in kidnapping this baby…the question is how??

The dad is usually in the habit of locking their compound gate by himself at night and opening the gate very early in the morning, (even though they had a security guard), so on that fateful day, he went downstairs to open the gate. The mum apparently wanted to take her bath, and the dad was downstairs, so naturally she called on the nanny to hold the baby for her so she could quickly have her bath.


The nanny carefully strapped the baby on her back and pretended to be going about her normal chores, she swept the porch downstairs and cleared the waste into the bin, then she carried the waste basket and told the gateman she wanted to throw the waste outside the gate. …bam! That was it, she escaped with the baby and by the time her number could be reached, the call was traced to Seme border at 9.00 am the same day, in just 3 hours!.
