7 bodies retrieved from Mohokare River at Lesotho-SA border

Lesotho police have recovered the bodies of seven people believed to have been trying to cross into South Africa through the Mohokare River.

The first body was discovered just before Christmas, with the seventh body retrieved last night, reports said.

It’s believed the deceased were trying to cross into South Africa via the river using what seemed like mattresses.

There are fears that there could be more bodies in the water.

The deaths follows news that 41 people who crossed illegally from Lesotho in to South Africa were arrested Saturday.
