Sonny Fai Presumed Dead

[alexrugby]

Sonny Fai's family says false rumours being spread that the missing Warriors star has been found alive are cruel.

Hoax text messages are being circulated - including several to Newstalk ZB - that the player has walked out of the sea, dehydrated but alive.

Talkback callers to Radio Samoa have also claimed to see the 20-year-old.

His family has asked people to stop spreading the rumours, which have hurt them.

Fai was swept out to sea on January 4 after he rescued his brother who got into difficulties at Bethells Beach.

There are people who think it is better to give false hope-I mean based on nothing, and encourage family members for further search but moral side of this behavior is absolutely unacceptable I think
