Police spokesperson Col Thembeka Mbele said officers went to the farm a week ago to attend an inquest.

“Upon their arrival police found skeletal remains. It is suspected the deceased is a man due to the clothing found on the scene.

“He was wearing black Adidas tracksuit pants, a bottle green Puma cap, checked boxer shorts and a T-shirt.
