The event<br>\norganiser was last seen by friends and colleagues on Saturday 2 December<br>\nbetween 10:00 and 14:30.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"xmsonormal\">His father Gert, who had flown down from Pretoria to assist in the<br>\nsearch, told TygerBurger&nbsp;Naude<br>\nhad left a function venue in Zevenwacht on<br>\nthe morning, where he had a wedding the previous evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"elementtoproof\">\u201cHe<br>\nhad the venue cleaned-up and phoned his mother to say he was going home to feed<br>\nhis dogs. He left again later that day, telling his housemate he had a party on<br>\nin Woodstock. Since then he has not been seen again.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"elementtoproof\">Having<br>\nnot heard from him on Sunday (the 3rd), Naude\u2019s mother Beulah tried to contact<br>\nhim. \u201cHe phoned us every day, and we became concerned when we could not get<br>\nhold of him. By Tuesday we started contacting his friends and colleagues, who<br>\nalso had not seen him, which is when we reported him missing. We know Gerhard<br>\nwould never have abandoned his pets or left them alone for this long. He would<br>\nalways get a pet sitter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"elementtoproof\">\u201cI<br>\nlater found out he had contacted one of his friends on the Sunday, telling him<br>\nhis car had broken down and he was now busy walking. The police found his car,<br>\na black Mercedes SLK in Woodstock on Wednesday.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"elementtoproof\">A<br>\ngroup of about 100 friends with his parents, on Thursday evening, ran a<br>\ncampaign in Sea Point where they distributed thousands of posters and spoke to<br>\nmembers of the public; and on Saturday the group took to the streets of<br>\nWoodstock, where they put posters up around the neighbourhood and spoke to<br>\nbusiness owners.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"elementtoproof\">\u201cAll<br>\nthe information we gathered was given to the detectives, who are following-up<br>\non the leads,\u201d said Gert. He told the newspaper everyone was deeply saddened by<br>\nthe situation, yet they believed they would find him and bring him home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"elementtoproof\">\u201cWe<br>\ncan\u2019t believe this has happened. It is very hard on his mom and me, and we<br>\ndrive around the peninsula aimlessly in hopes of seeing him somewhere.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"elementtoproof\">On<br>\nMonday morning police confirmed Naude had not yet been found.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"elementtoproof\">\u201cThe<br>\nperson is still missing and the investigation into the matter is still ongoing,\u201d said Sgt Wesley Twigg of the Western Cape Police<br>\nMedia Centre. \u201cWe appeal to anyone with any information that can<br>\nassist with the investigation or who knows the whereabouts of the missing<br>\nperson. They are kindly requested contact Crime Stop on 08600 10111.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"elementtoproof\">Naude<br>\nis 1,7 m tall and of muscular build, he has dark blonde hair in a spikey style<br>\nand brown eyes. Both his ears are pierced with studs and he sometimes wears<br>\ndark glasses. He has a tattoo of three swallows behind his left ear, a triangle<br>\noutline on his right hand and a large tribal tattoo on his<br>\nshoulder.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"elementtoproof\">&nbsp;He<br>\nwas last seen in a short-sleeved back-and-white check shirt and denim shorts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With the police investigation
