The perpetrators were seen calmly leaving the motor spares store with Ismail and fleeing the scene of the crime in a white Mercedes-Benz vehicle, as shown by CCTV footage.

Muneeb Ismail’s Family Speaks After Kidnapping
In an interview with TygerBurger, Shubnam Soeker, Ismail’s sister, expressed her shock and devastation at the event, stating that her family had never imagined they would have to deal with such a situation.
“We never thought that this would happen to our family,” she said.
Soeker also mentioned that the kidnappers did not contact their family to demand a ransom.
Police spokesperson Lieutenant-Colonel Malcolm Pojie has confirmed that the police are investigating the incident and are working to bring the perpetrators to justice.
A manhunt has been launched for the three suspects who kidnapped Muneeb Ismail, and experienced detectives have been assigned to the case.
“Seasoned detectives attached to the Western Cape Provincial Detectives have been assigned to probe the kidnapping of a 26-year-old businessman at a business premises in Nooiensfontein Road in Silversands (on) Thursday, March 23. Preliminary investigation suggests that three armed men entered the premises, looking for the owner, who was not at the shop at the time. They then got hold of the 26-year-old victim and forced him into a white Mercedes-Benz that was parked outside the shop, in which they fled the scene,” Lieutenant-Colonel Malcolm Pojie said.
