When he answered, he reportedly heard a male voice (whom he identified as the suspect) and also his mother’s voice shouting for her phone – before the call ended. It was stated that after the woman did not return home, the neighbour left in search of her. While walking along Hope Lowlands, Railway Embankment, the neighbour came across Nazaleen’s motionless body in the canal.
The police were summoned, and the scene was processed and photographed. Nazalene’s body was escorted to a funeral home awaiting a Post Mortem Examination (PME).
