A fire broke out at the family's shack while the boy was sleeping.


It's understood that his mother had gone to nearby shops when the incident occurred. 


The boy's father Thulani Ntshapheka says he cannot find words to express how he feels.


"It's very hard to say. With something like this, no one knows what to say but we're hanging in there," he said. 


The Social Development Department in the province has condemned the incident, issuing a stern warning to parents who leave their children unattended.
