Cape Town – Some South Africans stranded abroad have turned to a private investigator in a desperate attempt to get back home.

South African Declan Miller, the manager of Crest Hawk Investigations, a Cambodia-based detective agency, said he had received multiple requests from South Africans in Cambodia and Thailand for assistance.

We have also had a case of a South African elderly male who is stranded in a rural area of Cambodia. His family reached out to us, but he has simply gone off the radar.”

Miller, originally from Durban, has been living in Cambodia for nearly five years and said the majority of South Africans in the country were English teachers.

“With all schools being ordered to be closed, most teachers have been left with little to no salary at all. South African tourists have had to rely on the goodwill of strangers in Phnom Penh, or from money sent to them by their families back home.
