Van my bure het <span>long life<\/span> melk in haar mond gegooi in \u2019n poging om haar by te kry maar dit was te laat. Ons het met haar na die hospitaal gejaag, die dokter het egter ges\u00ea sy is reeds dood,\u201d vertel hy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Konst. Debi Alard, \u2019n polisie- woordvoerder, het die voorval bevestig.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDie 12-jarige het na bewering omstreeks 17:00 wasgoed op \u2019n elektriese draad gehang en is geskok. Sy is na die plaaslike hospitaal geneem, waar sy met haar aankoms dood verklaar is.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Die polisie het \u2019n geregtelike doodsondersoekdossier geopen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hendrik van Wyk, hoof by Meeulenhof Prim\u00eare Skool in Philadelphia, waar Selela \u2019n leerder was, is die skool in rou gedompel oor die verlies van die eens lewenslustige leerder. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSy was \u2019n intelligente en goed-gemanierde leerder en het skool bygewoon tot die dag van die tragedie. Die skool het Vrydag \u2019n gedenkdiens vir Selela gehou.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wyksraadslid Barbara Rass het inwoners van Witsand gemaan om nie onwettige elektriese konneksies te las nie. \u201c\u2019n Tiener is beroof van haar toekoms. Dit is een lewe te veel.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rass het ook bevestig dat Eskom tans besig is om kragaanleggings na die informele nedersettings aan te voer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cInwoners moet asseblief net geduldig wees met die proses. Ithumuleng se dood kon verhoed word. Dit is nie die eerste keer dat iemand hul lewe verloor as gevolg van onwettige kragkonneksies nie en dit sal ook nie die laaste wees, indien mense nie versigtig en geduldig is nie,\u201d het die wyksraadslid bygevoeg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Ithumuleng Selela (12) from Witsand was shocked to death on Tuesday 16 May after she reportedly hung her washing on an electrical power line. This has brought illegal electrical connections under the spotlight once again.
