The body of man was discovered in Parklands next to a railway line, the police say.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The railway-line, between Parklands and the Site 5 Informal Settlement, is used mainly by goods trains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Captain Adriana Chandler, police spokesperson, says the body was found by a passerby on Tuesday 1 August at about 11:00, who noticed the man lying on the ground near the railway-line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cTable View police arrived at the scene and noticed that the man was lying on his stomach and that he was barely breathing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt appeared that the man had multiple injuries to his body and there was also stones and sticks lying next to him,\u201d Chandler says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She says medical personnel was called to the scene, but that the man had succumbed to his injuries, shortly after their arrival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The police have opened an inquest docket. They are asking the community to come forward with any information they might have surrounding the circumstances of the man\u2019s death.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The public can contact the Table View police on 021 521 3300 or call the Crime Stop number on 08600 10111.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
