In a separate incident, Mabaso said a 12-year-old child is believed to have drowned in the uMshwathi Local Municipality."Police say that search operations had to be called off when crocodiles were spotted in [the] water." On Monday, Cogta MEC Nomusa Dube-Ncube and eThekwini Mayor Zandile Gumede led mop-up operations in KwaMashu C Section where multiple homes were flooded.
They also visited the area of Amaoti where three family members – a mother, father and a child were washed away. "The bodies of the father and a child have been recovered but the mother is still missing. These latest updates mean that three bodies have been recovered since yesterday and two are still missing," Mabaso said.
