Cape Town - Phumeza Mgqwaki is clinging to the hope her daughter Mampho Mgqwaki, 14, who disappeared from her home in Kuyasa, Khayelitsha, four weeks ago, will return home.

Child protection and advocacy group Molo Songololo’s Patric Solomons said last year alone his organisation had five cases involving the sexual exploitation of teen girls and two cases involving the disappearance and gang rape of two girls.
