Family identifies teen after Margate drowning incident
The body of 17-year-old Siyanda Buthelezi who died while trying to save two classmates from drowning has been positively identified by his family.
Buthelezi and two other pupils drowned last week Saturday at Margate beach on the south coast.
The children had been on a one-day school trip to play netball and soccer.
They'd stopped at the beach after the matches. Buthelezi's brother - Lucky says he'll be buried on Saturday.
"It's going to be hard for us. At least now we know we that we will bury him although it's not easy," he said.
Siyanda was the youngest of 10 siblings.
