On reaching home, I realised that I was without keys and decided to call his phone again, yet there was no response.

With the assistance of the motorcyclist, I got access to the house. I then saw my husband’s motorcycle parked which is very unusual.

“I hurried inside where I saw his body hanging from a ceiling fan hook in our bedroom”.
