The body of the late pastor was covered on the floor before the arrival of an ambulance which finally conveyed him to a local mortuary for post-mortem.

Investigations to ascertain the circumstances leading to his death were still in progress yesterday.

National police spokesperson Assistant Commissioner Paul Nyathi confirmed the incident.

“We can confirm that a church pastor allegedly jumped from the last floor of Rezende Parkade and died.

“We are currently investigating the case to establish the motive or the reasons behind this suicide,” he said.
