POLICE in Mashonaland West province have appealed to the public to identify the decomposing body of a man who hanged himself on a tree in a Hurungwe Game Park.
The body of a male adult was found by two herdmen on Wednesday.
One of the informants, Anyway Muropa (19), spotted the body in Hurungwe’s Nyamakate area in the International Anti-Poaching Foundation concession, where his cattle had strayed.
Muropa later informed local headman Kufainyore Mateke, who made a police report.
ZRP Mashonaland West provincial deputy spokesperson Assistant Inspector Aggary Jaure confirmed the incident.
“We urge people to seek counselling whenever they have challenges,” she said in a telephone interview.
The deceased was clad in a striped golf T-shirt and blue Chino trousers.
An empty black satchel was found near his body, but there were no indicators that could lead to the deceased relatives.
