“An officer came to our home at around 10.30pm to inform us that the body of a teen was found wearing clothing which matched what my brother was last seen wearing,” explained Ian Ross.
The family were asked to identify the body on Monday and, from what they could tell from the clothing, it was that of Michael.
According to the family, the teen had decided to not join them at a family braai, at Homestead Dam, on April 12.
He, instead, wanted to spend the afternoon with a friend and went missing on his way to give his family the only key they all shared to their Woburn Avenue flat.
The family still have many questions as to why Michael went missing and what led to his death.
