Man 56 commits suicide in maiya fishing camp in sinazongwe

POlICE in Sinazongwe District  in Southern Province have  picked a body of a fifty six years old man suspected of committing suicide at Maiya Fishing camp.

A ZANIS reporter who rushed to the scene found Patson Mpundu 56 hanging on a rope tied to a tree believed to have hanged himself for unknown reasons.

According to the son of the deceased, Aubrey Mpundu, his father  arrived home while drunk and had a chat with his children while the wife was away on the islands of Lake Kariba for fish and kapenta trading after which they left him outside when it was time for them to go to bed.

Mpundu said  that they only woke up to a rude shock when they discovered that their father had committed suicide after a tip off from the neighbourhood watch.

Sinazongwe police picked up the body of Patson Mpundu and is currently lying in  Maamba hospital mortuary.

  1. I need to be corrected, most pf bloggers like kudos, terrible, ndanje claim that bembas were thrown out of Southern province, death sad as it might be has exposed their lies.

    • So bad.

      It is hunger & poverty suffering under PF bandits which has led to this unprecedented suicides in the country.
      How much is mealie meal in your area today after Edgar & Dora had a “fruitful meeting with the miller” in January 2017 as reported by LT?
      Last week another man & 2 children committed suicide by throwing themselves into Kafue river due to poverty & hunger under this failed & uncaring PF banditry!
      Invest in education & vote wisely forward~suicide is not the solution but kicking PF out.
