FIVE family members burnt to death in an RDP house at Marikana Geluksoord, near Christiana in the early hours of Sunday morning. According to information, the man allegedly went outside at around 3:30am in the morning and noticed smoke coming out of his neighbour’s house.
North West police spokesperson, Brig Sabata Mokgwabone said: “He rushed to the house and found all doors locked and windows closed. The man ran back to his house, where he fetched an iron rod.
“He alerted other neighbours and went back to the burned house, where he broke open all the doors and windows. After the smoke had subsided, he and other neighbours entered the house and discovered that the ceiling and a few household goods had burned.”
He said the neighbours allegedly found the bodies of two children aged 8 and 15 in the sitting room, while a body of a child (3) was found in the sitting room. Mokgwabone said the bodies of a couple aged 38 and 48 respectively were found in the main bedroom.
“All the victims were declared dead at the scene by Emergency Medical and Rescue Services (EMRS) paramedics. The cause of the fire is unknown and no foul play is suspected at this stage. The investigation into the matter continues.
