THE body of Oratile Tau (14) was recovered yesterday by members of the Search and Rescue Unit.
Oratile drowned together with a friend on Friday afternoon while trying to cross the Tubatse River in Limpopo. The two girls were trying to cross the river on their way home after school when they fell in.
Fourteen-year-old Tshepang Sello’s body was found on Saturday afternoon.
Limpopo police spokeswoman Colonel Ronel Otto said Oratile’s body was recovered just before the Steelpoort Bridge – 21km downstream from where the teenager entered the river. The cops had been searching for her body since Friday.
