Body of second fisherman positively identified


Police have identified the fisherman whose body washed ashore at Kini Bay near Sardinia Bay on Thursday.

He was 39-year-old Sihle Dlamini of Jeffrey's Bay.

Dlamini was one of 8 fishermen who went missing after their Chokka Boat, the Maredon capsized in heavy seas and ran aground at Cape St Francis in the early hours of Sunday morning.

A body of one of the fisherman was recovered at the scene and seven crewmen survived the ordeal.

On Wednesday, the body of another Jeffrey's Bay crewman, 43-year-old Mbongeni Gift Zulu, was found floating in the sea near Blue Horizon Bay west of Port Elizabeth.

Six men are still missing.
