Enyobeni tavern owner, two workers arrested
Updated | By Algoa FM
The owner of the Enyobeni tavern where 21 children died last month has been arrested along with two of his employees.

Eastern Cape police say the 52-year-old tavern owner and employees, aged 33 and 34 years respectively, were detained after the provincial liquor board laid charges against them for allegedly contravening the Liquor Act.
SAPS spokesperson Tembinkosi Kinana says, among other things, their investigation focused on allegations that alcohol was supplied or sold to children under the age of 18 years.
The deaths of the 12 girls and nine boys remains a mystery.

Kinana says their forensic investigation is continuing.
"Forensic investigation into the cause of death of the 21 children in Enyobeni tavern, is still ongoing.
"As indicated earlier, at an appropriate time and conclusion of the investigation, the results will be made available to the affected families. There are no new developments at this stage."
The two staff members have been given the option of a fine, while the tavern owner is set to appear in court in August.
