The bodies of two children who allegedly drowned on Monday at Ongos Valley in Windhoek were on Tuesday retrieved by private divers.

This was confirmed to Nampa by the Namibian Police Force’s Inspector, Raimbert Muronga, here on Tuesday.

The two children, both aged 12, allegedly drowned while swimming at Goreagab Dam on Monday and NamPol had initially attempted to recover their remains without success, leading to private divers assisting them on Tuesday. The two have been identified as David Shimbwale and Anna Hafeni, whose bodies were on Tuesday transported to the police mortuary for a post-mortem.
