In a statement, the Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) said the deceased and their two friends, Lucas Sibanda and Brian Dlamini had gone swimming when the tragic incident happened. The statement read: > Two people are feared to have drowned after they disappeared in the water while swimming on the Zambezi River. > On 27 August around 2 pm, the victims together with Lucas Sibanda and Brian Dlamini went to Zambezi River gorge number 6 to swim. Around 3.40 pm while they were swimming, a huge wave of water approached and they failed to swim out. Meanwhile, rafting kayakers had sailed down the river checking for the bodies but found none. Police had also earlier used a helicopter from a local helipad company to search for the players’ bodies but could not locate them. The search was expected to resume on Saturday morning when the Bulawayo sub-aqua team was expected to join the search mission. *More: NewZimbabwe.com* itel A50 now available on Pindula at $84 64GB storage, 2GB RAM. _ideal for light usage_ _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
