The dead bodies being moved to a mortuary

Cleopas Jokomela, a Zimbabwean man from the Budiriro district of Harare has died. The man died on Monday along with his three sons in a well as they tried to drain water using a water pump.

According to H Metro, Cleopas Jokomela, 63, got into a 20-metre deep well and placed a water pump to drain water before drowning.

His three sons Tom Jokomela, 34, Cleopas Jokomela (Jnr), 31, and Mccllugh Jokomela, 30 drowned as they tried to rescue their father.

National police spokesperson Chief Superintendent Paul Nyathi confirmed the mishap saying investigations were in progress.

“Police are investigating an unfortunate incident that happened in Budiriro where a father and his three sons drowned while draining water from their well using a water pump,” said Chief Supt Nyathi.

“Investigations are being carried out and police are appealing to organisations and individuals to engage experts after a thorough analysis to drain water in any area to avoid such mishaps,” he said.

The well has been sealed up

Narrating to H-Metro how the four drowned, Grace Jokomela, the mother to the three sons believed that smoke from the pump could have suffocated the deceased.

“I have been robbed of bread winners, I am only left with one daughter and her baby; it is so painful,” said Grace.

“We noticed that smoke from the water pump had engulfed the well and the sons drowned one by one in efforts to rescue their father. Residents who used to fetch water from this well have been affected as well,” she added.

Police sub aqua unit retrieved the bodies and they were taken to Harare Central Hospital mortuary.
