A family member says they received an anonymous tip-off via SMS saying where to find the seven-year-old.
The area's ward councillor Virginia Mwandla says the boy’s family are not taking this situation well.
"It is very bad.. The family is not happy at all. The family is feeling unsafe because the perpetrator has not being caught and they don't even want to talk about it. They aren't coping at all because the whole body has not been found."
