The body of the four-year-old Mlando Zuma was found yesterday at 18:30 in a sewer of a house where the child was last seen playing. An inquest docket was opened at Plessislaer SAPS for investigation.
Today, the community gathered outside the house where the child was found and set the house alight. We are appealing to the community not to take law into their own hands; the acts of vigilantism will not be tolerated in our province.
Police are still waiting for the post-mortem results that will determine the cause of death.
