A man was found dead in a caravan on a Boschkop plot this morning, police reported. The details are not yet known.

A 26-year-old man was found dead on Monday lying in a puddle of blood in a workshop caravan on a Boschkop plot, police said.

“He was found at 08:00 by the owner of the plot with severe head wounds, his body lying in a puddle of blood,” said police spokeswoman Captain Marissa Van Der Merwe.

Police found an empty envelope which they suspect contained his weekly wage.

“We also found a sim card on the floor next to the deceased which we have taken in to check for the call log,” Van Der Merwe added.

The case was opened and is currently under investigation to determine the events that led up to the incident.

“The few clues we have are that the deceased intended to visit his brother this weekend. He was last seen on Saturday,19 October. We have found finger prints and are investigating the matter. No arrests have been made yet,” said Van Der Merwe.
