ABDUCTED at birth and now reunited with her biological family, 17-year-old Zephany Nurse says she has no plans to testify against the woman who allegedly snatched her from hospital when she was born and raised her as her own.

According to her social worker, provincial Social Development director Leana Goosen, Zephany wants nothing more than a normal life and to go back to school and attend her matric dance.

Goosen said yesterday: “She hopes to be as normal as possible for the future, without parties fighting about her, and to give her the opportunity to have as many loved ones in her life, without her having to choose between people.”

Zephany, who has been living under a different name, also does not want her identity to be revealed when she turns 18.

Her alleged abductor will appear in court tomorrow.
