Africa-Press – Mozambique. <\/strong><\/span>Five people from the same family died while cleaning a community well in the administrative post of Mecumbura, Ma\u0301goe\u0300 district, in the central Mozambican province of Tete.<\/p>\n

According to a report on Ra\u0301dio Moc\u0327ambique, the incident took place on Sunday, when the head of the family, realizing that the water taken from the local well contained impurities, decided to do the cleaning work.<\/p>\n

Once inside the well, he was unable to get out, so the other members of the family, trying to find out what had happened, also got trapped into the well.<\/p>\n

One of the family members confirmed the incident.<\/p>\n

The administrator of Ma\u0301goe\u0300, Titos Sitoe, lamented the situation and said that the authorities were working to ascertain the real causes of death of the five people, all of whom were male.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt the moment the government has set up a multi-sectoral team that has gone there to get more details of the event, to see what the situation is and also to see, as a government, what we can do about this tragedy\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n
