Family members of workers tr@pped underneath the rubble of a coll@psed building in construction at George in the Western Cape say they are still waiting for confirmation whether their loved ones have been recovered or not.
Bright Kayuni says his nephew’s wife was among those on site when the building coll@psed yesterday.
Officials have so far confirmed that 27 people have been recovered of whom six were declared de@d.
Kayuni says they are yet to find out whether she has been taken to hospital or is still trapped.
“Us as family were affected by the news. We just want to find out where are our relatives. We want to know what condition they are in but we don’t have any information at the moment. So we’re just waiting for the hospital to give us a report.”
Western Cape Premier Alan Winde gave a briefing earlier on the current status of rescue operations.
