"It is alleged that the learner hung himself after a love quarrel with a 17-year-old girl learner from the same school. The boy learner had allegedly left other learners at the dining hall and went to the junior hostel, where he took his life.

"His body was discovered by fellow learners, who allegedly untied him and let him down before calling for assistance. Paramedics arrived within 10 minutes, but declared him dead on the scene,"Mabona said. “It is very unfortunate that a learner decided to take his own life. This is a very sensitive issue to which we firstly wish to convey our deepest condolences to the family of the learner. We also wish to convey our sympathy to the school population for this loss.

He said a psychosocial unit has been deployed to visit the schools to provide necessary counselling to all affected by the incidents.
