TWO Beitbridge men from Mtetengwe village, 30km west of
Beitbridge, drowned in full view of their children at the weekend while on a
fishing expedition.
The men, identified as Phathisani Ndlovu and Tembani
Muleya, had their bodies recovered by police who combed the Muengedzi seasonal
stream that burst its banks following recent above normal downpours.
A villager from the area, Kommon Moyo, said the two men
left their children in a car, but were washed away by flash floods at around
3pm.
“Their bodies are still here; they have been taken out of
the water. Police have gone to collect trunks to carry them,” Moyo said.
Efforts to get a comment from Matabeleland South police
spokesperson Chief Inspector Philisani Ndebele were fruitless. Newsday
