JOHANNESBURG – A Mozambican family that lost four people to a toxic gas leak is pleading for assistance to transport the bodies to their home country for burial.
The four – two minors, a 34-year-old man and a 60-year-old woman are among the 17 people that were killed by the leakage of a gas cylinder at the Angelo Informal Settlement in Boksburg last week.
The family has spoken against holding their funeral service in South Africa, saying they would prefer to lay them to rest in the presence of their loved ones.
They’ve emphasised that they cannot afford to take the four corpses to Mozambique, but they say it is not in their plans to lay them to rest in South Africa.
