The family of two boys who drowned at the weekend believes that they might have been pushed into an abandoned illegal mine hole.

Police spokesperson Capt Mmaphaswa Seabi said:"The parents became suspicious when the children did not return and were nowhere to be found. They searched in the area and proceeded to the illegal mine hole which was filled with water due to recent rains.
