Mediclinic says the children were not born at their hospital
Meanwhile, amid controversy generated by the #Tembisa10, Mediclinic in Pretoria has since come forward to say that the hospital has no records of Gosiame Sithole (the mom of the decuplets) or the little ones at any of their hospital branches.
The confusion about which facility she gave birth at came after the woman told the children's father Teboho Tsotsetsi that she had given birth at the Pretoria Mediclinic and was then transferred to Steve Biko Hospital.
Full investigation still ongoing, says Journalist Piet Rampedi
Piet Rampedi, a South African journalist who first broke the news of the newborn, has broken silence amid controversies trailing the whereabouts of the children.
There have been many claims coming up on social media which seek to tackle the validity of Rampedi's breaking story.
Defending himself, Rampedi said there is an ongoing "sensitive probe into #Tembisa10 story."
