Members of the Gauteng Water Police and Diving Services recovered six bodies from various water bodies across the province in just over a week.

“At 15:00, standby members of the Water Police Unit received a call from members of the community claiming that a canoe used by a fisherman had capsized and that the man had not resurfaced following the incident,” says Giblin. He says that relying on witness accounts of the incidents, K9 sniffer dogs are used to further identify the search area, reacting on gasses that are released by a submerged body.

Giblin urges members of the community to exercise extreme caution when engaging in recreational activities on or near bodies of water.
