Sithembile Ncwane, who was allegedly kidnapped on Friday, has been found alive.

Ncwane, 23, from KwaDabeka, outside Durban, disappeared minutes after texting her mother that she was being followed by a car, prompting a police search.

On Saturday evening, police spokesperson Col Thembeka Mbele said Ncwane had been found alive. She had been dropped off by her kidnappers.

A kidnapping case has been opened.

"She has injuries and has been taken to hospital for medical checks," said Mbele.
