The five Soweto children who died after consuming snacks, alleged to have contained poison, have been laid to rest. Sadly, the sixth child, who had been in ICU at the hospital has reportedly passed away.

His mother, who was part of the mourners attending the funeral service of the five other children at Naledi community hall in Soweto, was called to rush to the health facility, where the news of her sons passing were broken.

Children failed to contain themselves and burst into tears. Chairperson of Divine Intervention in Naledi, Gordon Rampolokeng, announced the passing during the mass funeral service of four of the children in Naledi.
