An attorney shot himself yesterday in the Randburg Police Station.
A police spokesperson, inspector Kym Cloete said that Mr. C. J. (Neels) Oosthuizen locked himself in the men’s restroom and comitted suicide by shooting himself in the head.
Just before the incident he texted a friend that he was going to kill himself.
He also left a suicide note behind, Cloete said, but it was not with him at the time.
Oosthuizen, a partner in the Da Mata law firm in Linden, walked into the police station neatly attired in a suit and tie.
He took the stairs to the first floor where the detective division was located.
He entered a toilet stall, closed the door behind him and shot himself.
A policeman who heard the shot, stormed into the toilet and discovered Oosthuizen.
As of yesterday, it was still unknown why Oosthuizen went to the police station, Cloete said. Beeld assumes that Oosthuizen knew the policemen there.
