Traveller Hangs Himself in Toilet at JM Nkomo International Airport

Man on Johannesburg Flight Said to Have Checked In Before Suicide in Toilet

BULAWAYO – A man tragically hanged himself in a toilet at Joshua Mqabuko Nkomo International Airport on Thursday after checking in for a flight to Johannesburg, sources have revealed.

Details of the incident are still emerging, but a passenger on the early evening FastJet flight to South Africa reported that the man had been assigned seat 15A on flight FN8663.

“He arrived at the airport and checked in. Then for whatever reason, he went to the male toilet and hanged himself. It appears he had a rope,” the traveller informed ZimLive.

An airport source disclosed that police had discovered a diary “full of suicide notes.”

“The young man had a lot which was happening in his life,” the source added.

Airport officials have declined to comment on the matter. Airports Company of Zimbabwe CEO Tawanda Gusha referred inquiries to the officer in charge at the airport, Assistant Inspector Patience Ndlovu, who also declined to comment.

Bulawayo police spokesman Abednico Ncube stated that he was unaware of the incident and asked for more time to verify the information.
