Central Police Station acting commander, Assistant Superintendent Douglas Khumalo, said that they received a report about the incident on Saturday. He said that the deceased was found hanging by a rope from the rafters.
He revealed that they have not yet been able to determine the reason behind the man's killing himself because the deceased did not leave a suicide note behind. Khumalo encouraged people to get professional help or family elder assistance before taking their own lives.

He stated that the community should keep up its upright conduct.
