[@lameckkatsande2235]

Yes yes

[@dollylourens4423]

Leitel director Theuns Kruger is a lawyer. He should be held responsible for repatriation of the deceased workers as leitel was their employer.

[@IshmaelMbulaheni]

this is complicated,they also hired undocumented peoples,but theres south africans who are looking for job.that will be taken to consideration on the investigation

[@user-sn8ii2mg1w]

Who said they are undocumented?

[@user-zg6mc2xt9c]

Ñot supporting immigration, but death doesn't care whether you have a green coded ID book or not..... it's one thing that is fair.

[@liespypolygraph]

Exactly! SA can't accommodate the entire Africa. Our own people are starving!

[@normannorman5546]

It's heart broken but this is the consequences of illegally flocking into south Africa without documents 💔🤣

[@carolinasmith3288]

Think there must be a LAW that any worker MUST have a TAG on EVERYDAY at work. Every workplace!! With persons NAME COMPANY'S NAME ID FAMILY' SEL NO. And a PHOTO of person. That never such a struggle with people who pass on or in hospital took place. It is heartbreaking that people does not even know their lived ones are gone.

I work in construction on a reflecting vest that is a pocket were they supposed to put to their access card but most men especially non South Africa will say mxim when you ask and most of them will give u the name that are not in their passport or Id

[@Skhamnini]

[@rbruwer7]

Liatel why dont you pull up your socks and make contact with the families? Where is your humality?

[@tiffrknee]

Non-existent. I cannot even fathom the level of disregard for human life that it takes to be this absent. Cowards

[@colleenwait2637]

[@faridaally6184]

Its very sad to die in a foreign country with no identification

[@thandekamgijima1871]

[@Skhamnini]

[@KungobabaloTyhileka]

This is heartbreaking 💔 😢

[@liespypolygraph]

Someone said many ran away when the collapse happened.

[@liespypolygraph]

My heart breaks for the families. However, I blame the ANC ditectly. WHERE is border control without bribes? Also, SA sits with millions illegal immigrants all over Africa. We don't have enough food and resources to accommodate the entire Africa - our own people are suffering.

[@lynettesmith2836]

Surely the employers will have addresses of those that worked there.

[@EdnaKoch]

Apparently they don't have it as most of the people were illegal immigrants. They don't even have all the names

[@user-hn7tf2ht2e]

They were illegal foreigners that were picked up from street corners. They were the preferred cheap labourers above the local citizens. Good for them. Yes I said it good for them coming here through the rivers and bushes.

[@user-ym4di3no9x]

[@liespypolygraph]
