Clermont toddlers released from hospital after near death experience
Updated | By Anelisa Kubheka
The two Clermont toddlers who survived being trapped inside a stationary car they had been playing in last month, are now back home from hospital.
Phiwokuhle Mtshali and Ayabonga Sithole were inside the car that had been parked outside a mechanic's home. Their two friends, cousins Asiphile and Bayanda died of extreme heat exposure.
Ernest Phiri who had left the car unlocked hoping to work on it later that day says he is relieved that the surviving children are ok.
"I was feeling bad if we could lose four souls at once. After I heard that those two kids are ok, they are safe, I really felt good. Of course it's not that good because I still feel the pain for the other two we lost, but for the others who are still ok, I'm really, really happy for that," he said.
