Body found next to railway line in Johannesburg

The naked body of man has been found next to the railway line between Sharon Park and Dunnottar on Johannesburg's East Rand. Police spokesperson Andy Pieke says the body has wounds indicating he may have been thrown off a moving train. Pieke said they are investigating the possibility that the man's death may be linked to the ongoing security guard strike. More than 20 people have been thrown off trains since the Satawu strike began more than two months ago. It is suspected that the attacks could have been perpetrated by striking guards. Talks between the union and employers are expected to be resumed on Wednesday.
