Once a well-off family, they now sleep on the verandah of their destroyed house, without food, blankets or clothing. The repeated, unexplained fires have caused the family to lose most of their belongings, including R6 000 in cash, they told CV. With no answers or relief in sight, they are appealing to members of the public for assistance.

The emotional toll on the family has been significant, with close relatives offering moral support, though all remain deeply affected.
