Gauteng Education MEC Matome Chiloane says he is startled to learn of the discovery of a Grade 10 learner’s dead body at Hoërskool Garsfontein in Pretoria on Tuesday.
According to reports, the shocking discovery was made by the school’s security who found the corpse of the young girl on the school’s rugby field on Tuesday morning.
The pupil has been identified as Mia Kuhn (16 years) and the police were at the scene conducting an investigation. While the family of the girl is receiving support from the Department of Education at the school.
“What is unclear at this stage is how the dead body of the learner landed in the school, especially since schools are on recess and there are no learners at school. We call upon police to urgently apprehend the perpetrators. We also extend our sincerest condolences to the family and the school community at large,” said Chiloane who also visited the school on Tuesday.
