Fifteen-year-old Tiro Moalusi died on Tuesday last week after a teacher allegedly mocked him about his sexuality in front of the class.

JOHANNESBURG - A grade 9 pupil from the PJ Simelane Secondary School in Soweto who took his own life is set to be laid to rest on Thursday morning.

The educator is reported to have called Moalusi ‘Sis bhuti’, which means sissy boy, when calling him up for his turn to present his speech.

The family said that Tiro Moalusi returned home showing no signs of distress from what happened at school.When asked what was wrong, he revealed that he had consumed rat poison."We have since launched an investigation as the department surrounding the circumstances regarding this incident which occurred," said Gauteng Education Department spokesperson Steve Mabona.

Moalusi’s family, fellow pupils and friends will gather on Thursday morning at his home in Tshepisong to bid him farewell.
