“The thing that has happened is very painful because the school failed to report to us that the children spent two weeks without attending class. Maybe if the school had reported [this] we could have seen this coming,” he said. He said a missing persons file was initially opened at Dennilton police station and police launched a search, assisted by the community.
Ngomane said after spending Sunday with his children, he last saw them when they departed for school on Monday.“My child collapsed at school after hearing the news. Family friend and neighbour Mandla Mabona said a friend of the older child who died had revealed they were interacting with a foreign national in the area who later disappeared.
The department dispatched a team of social workers to provide psychosocial support to the families of the deceased children.
