According to information from the police, young Ndumiso Mshina (4) of Julia Ngedezi Street in Vosman was playing outside unaware that the wire fence was live.
His grandmother, Nora Ngema, said she was left in care of the two children Ndumiso and younger sister Nokubonga Mshina (2) while their mother attended a church service. The incident happened on Friday, July 18 Mandela Day at about 13:10.
“He was supposed to have celebrated his birthday on Tuesday, July 22 but now we are preparing for his funeral,” said his grandmother.
According to the grandmother the problem started when they built them RDP houses in Vosman more than a year ago and while they already had electricity in their old shacks, connection had to be made in the electrical boxes in the new houses.
Cable connection was done from poles, which had put up to the new houses and she said the problem was the connection. Ms Ngema added that their wire fence and even their washing line were live. Municipal officials took out the cable and hopefully the problem will be solved.

According to the police this is not the first incident of this kind in KwaGuqa extensions, two other incidents of this nature were reported in the past.
The family was busy with funeral arrangements.
