Police say there is no way the man could have committed the alleged offence as he died two years ago!
Colonel Thembeka Mbhele said the woman claimed to have met with the businessman last month after he promised her a job.

A case of indecent exposure was opened at Durban Central SAPS for further investigation. Upon investigation it was confirmed that the suspect aged 76 passed away in April 2016‚’ said Mbhele.
The Department of Home Affairs also confirmed that the “suspect” had died in 2016.
