The police spokesperson, Lesedi Dingoko, confirmed to OFM News that the bodies of the two young boys aged 10 were found on Thursday in a swimming pool at one of the residences at Imperial Reserve, Mahikeng.

He says on Tuesday 5 March 2019, a report was made to the police that Onalenna and Gontse were allegedly kidnapped while playing at a park in Montshiwa in Mahikeng.

OFM News previously reported that the two were in the company of another boy who allegedly ran off when three occupants of a Volkswagen Polo kidnapped the boys and drove off with them. Dingoko says at this stage, a case of inquest has been opened for investigation.

Meanwhile, the North West Provincial Commissioner, Baile Motswenyane, expressed her heartfelt condolences to the families. She has further urged members of the community to remain calm and afford the police an opportunity to conduct a thorough investigation.
