Failed Suicide Attempt Takes Tragic Twist As Man Falls To His Death

A 71 year old Binga man from Lusulu died after falling from a tree, while he was attempting to commit suicide.

Matabeleland North police spokesperson Chief Inspector Siphiwe Makonese confirmed the incident.

She said Sianganda Mudenda tried to commit suicide by hanging himself from the truss inside his bedroom, but his 16 year old granddaughter begged him to stop.

This happened in the absence of  Mudenda’s wife,  Mrs Noloa Mudenda (66).

However Mudenda was so fixated on ending his life that he went outside and lied to his granddaughter that he was to get something from a tree on their homestead.

His granddaughter is also said to have begged him in vain not to climb the tree.
