Family seeks answers after Pietermaritzburg man dies in suspected electrocution
Father of three, Jeremy Naidoo, who was retrenched and doing odd jobs to support his family, was electrocuted and died after he allegedly hit a live wire with his spade while cleaning his friend’s yard.
The family of 54-year-old Rajendra Ramdan, whose body was discovered in Muden four days after he went missing from his home in Greytown, is desperate for answers and grappling with trauma. The businessman, who had no children and lived with a lodger, was last seen on CCTV leaving his Voortrekker Street home on September 16. Ramdan's sister, Rita Singh, said he appeared to be visiting someone he knew but never returned.
The lodger reported Ramdan missing the next day, prompting police to open a missing persons case. The family searched town for Ramdan, only to receive shocking news on September 20 when his decomposed body was found in a stream in Muden, a small town outside Greytown. The family, who had deep roots in the community, expressed horror at the grim circumstances of his death, stating they were always hopeful he would return home safely.
Police informed the family that Ramdan had been stabbed but the motive remains unknown. The family is seeking answers and justice for their beloved brother, who was known for his kindness and compassion towards those in need.
