Brighton Zanthe, 34, was being laid to rest inside a
coffin last Monday after he apparently died at his home following a long
illness.
The transport worker’s grieving family covered his body with blankets and made arrangements to transfer him to a local mortuary, according to a report in the Herald newspaper.
But the next day Mr Zanthe’s friends and relatives scattered in disbelief when he started moving as they filed past to say their emotional goodbyes.
The dead man’s boss Lot Gaka told THE MINGLE of the moment he realised his employee was still alive.
He said: ‘I was the first to notice Zanthe’s moving legs as I was in the queue to view his body.
This shocked me.

‘At first I could not believe my eyes
but later realised that there was indeed some movements on the body as
other mourners retreated in disbelief.’
