7-Year-Old Disappears While Hunting: Cator Manor - KZN

07 April 2025 | From Arrive Alive


Pictured is 7-year-old Sqalo Phumelela Ntlooa, who went missing while hunting with friends in Cator Manor - KZN. 

Yesterday (Sunday), Ntlooa and a group of friends entered the Nsimbini Cato Manor Forest near Albert Luthuli - KZN grounds with dogs to hunt small prey. The group returned, but Ntlooa could not be located since. 

His friends provided conflicting reports with some saying that he had not returned with them from hunting and others stating that he proceeded to a local tuck shop to play arcade games after the hunt. 

Employees at the tuck shop were interviewed by a search party, but denied seeing the child. One (1) child alleged that Ntlooa boarded an unknown vehicle after they returned. This information could also not be verified. 

Ntlooa is a grade 2 learner at Nsimbini Primary School. He was last seen dressed in  a blue T-shirt and an orange pants. 

The RUSA R44 Helicopter is expected to lift off to conduct an aerial search of the area.
