Cape Town - A Cape Town man’s body was recovered from his vehicle found down a cliff between Gordon’s Bay and Koeël Bay on Monday night.

The 29-year-old’s family had reported him missing to police, but asked NSRI to search along the coastline as they feared his vehicle could have left the coastal road between Kleinmond and Gordons Bay,” NSRI spokesman Craig Lambinon said.

The man had taken the R44 road from the Arabella Golf Estate to Cape Town at about 3pm on Saturday, but failed to arrive home that evening, Lambinon said.

NSRI Gordon’s Bay volunteers went out at 4pm on Monday and four hours later saw the man’s wrecked car at Dappe Se Gat near Koeël Bay, said Lambinon.

Police spokesman Tembinkosi Kinana confirmed the incident, but said he awaited more information from Gordon’s Bay police.
