Matabeleland South Police Spokesman Inspector Loveness Mangana confirmed the incident on Friday.
“I can confirm that Nqobani Nyathi, 30, committed suicide after throwing himself into a well after misunderstanding his wife. On December 8th, police received a notice that there were a pair of slippers and footprints near a well, suggesting they belonged to someone who slipped into the well, ”said Mangana.
She said that an underwater team that went to the crime scene recovered Nyathi’s body.
Mangana said the body was taken to United Bulawayo Hospital for an autopsy.
Nyathi did not leave a suicide note.
Sources told Southern Eye that they suspected there had been some misunderstanding about the infidelity between Nyathi and his wife before he threw himself into the well.
