Mahoko said: > The scene has since been attended by the police and the body was taken to Gweru Provincial Hospital awating postmortem. Officials from the ZETDC also attended to the scene and investigations are still underway. The incident comes after another boy, Colleen Chinyemba, 15, who was doing Form 3 at Nkululeko High was last year electrocuted while doing laundry in a tub at the school hostel. Then an 11-year-old boy was last year September electrocuted in a Bushy area near Nguboyenja flyover Bulawayo as he was searching for some wild fruits with his friends. In the same month, a woman tragically lost her life after she was electrocuted as she was relieving herself in a ZESA substation in Bulawayo. Then another 15-year-old girl from Nlumumani, Bulawayo was found unconscious in their family residence’s bathroom in a suspected case of electrocution in February last year. These cases have been on the rise recently and authorities blame faulty lines. More: The Herald _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
