Police investigate death of British-born man who went missing in South Africa

A BRITISH-BORN Jewish man who disappeared in South Africa has been found dead.

David Ezekiel, who emigrated from London 35 years ago and was semiretired, went missing from his home in Johannesburg on February 16.

His family in Hertfordshire had launched an appeal for witnesses online, which was shared hundreds of times on social media.

South African police are investigating his death. A spokesman said it was “premature” to comment with the inquiry at “a very sensitive stage”.
