Reason Mugadha (24) went missing on the 26th of December after he was taken into custody by a security company in Jeppe Street.<\/p>\n
Two of Mugadha’s brothers who were informed of his arrest, filed a case of kidnapping after not being able to locate him in any of the hospitals or police stations in the area.
\nTinashe Mangwende, Reason’s brother, came to\u00a0www.mobserver.co.za<\/b>\u00a0on the 2nd of January to report his brother’s disappearance.<\/p>\n
Mr Mangwende disclosed to one of the journalists that the security company allegedly took Mugadha into custody after accusing him of theft.<\/p>\n
He showed a video of his brother’s arrest and then proceeded to state that the security guards assaulted Mugadha to the point where he could no longer stand by himself.
\nTinashe Mangwende alleged that after several onlookers told the guards that “they were going too far”, the guards then loaded him into the back of their response vehicle and left.<\/p>\n
After learning of their brother’s arrest, Tinashe and another sibling went to the police station, which was unaware of the incident.<\/p>\n
After the case was opened, Tinashe alleged that the police contacted the security company, who then stated that Reason Mugadha managed to escape their custody.<\/p>\n
A search for the missing man then proceeded for seven days, until Tinashe and his other brother informed\u00a0www.mobserver.co.za<\/b>\u00a0that they identified his body at the State Mortuary.
