According to his grandmother Silindile Gumede, Lethukuthula left the house in the morning with his friends to go swimming.
His body floated until it disappeared before the emergency services arrived. The grandmother said lifeguards as well as the police’s Search and Rescue Unit arrived at the scene but said the sea was too rough to initiate the search for the body. It was recovered two days later, badly mutilated.
In November last year, a 15-year-old boy drowned while swimming with others at the same beach. Despite an extensive search, the body was never recovered.
