Two men are in police custody for investigations after they brought another man to Mogoditshane police with a wound on the head on Saturday night.

The man was later certified dead by doctors on arrival at the Nkoyaphiri clinic. Police are still trying to piece together what happened as they interrogate the duo who brought in the deceased to the police station.
