The family of a South African woman, Nomaqocwa Blackie (29), is seeking answers after she was found dead in her flat in Shanghai, China on Monday 18 April 2022.

Nomaqocwa left South Africa in 2017 for Shanghai, where she taught English.

The Sunday World Newspaper reports that Nomaqocwa ‘s friend, Abongile Mboto, who also teaches at the same school in China, became worried when she did not submit her learning materials video in time.

Abongile then gave police access to Nomaqocwa’ s apartment where she was found dead.

A search by Sarichandfamous.com of Facebook and Instagram did not reveal any recent identity for Nomaqocwa. An old Twitter account appears to be the only online identity of Nomaqocwa, as if someone has deliberately deleted her online accounts.
