Investigations have been launched into whether it was the man's intention to commit suicide.


 


Johannesburg mayor Herman Mashaba has conveyed his sympathies to his family.


 


“As a city, when I was immediately phoned about this, I was really completely devastated – and I am still. As much as he’s not an employee of the city he’s one of us, a fellow South African.”
