Reports coming in from Spanish media reveal that a young Ghanaian identical twin brother was found dead in a river.
According to the report, tragedy struck the Ghanaian family in Spain when the 11-year-old boys are believed to have drowned in the Ter River in Manlleu, Barcelona.
Reports suggest the identical twin brothers had gone out to play football at sunset but failed to return home, with their father later reporting them missing, prompting a search by local police.
A search by police in the area where the boys had gone to play led to the discovery of their bodies in the Ter River.
The information gathered details that the first body was found at about 1:00 pm, with the second recovered around 2:00 pm, both from the riverbed.
The search team also retrieved clothing matching what the twin brothers were wearing near the area where their bodies were recovered.
Reports suggest the description of the two missing 11-year-old twins matched the bodies recovered from the river, which have since been transferred to the Institute of Legal Medicine and Forensic Sciences of Catalonia for autopsies and formal identification.
Meanwhile, the police suspect the brothers died in an accidental drowning.
