Police confirm that 24-year-old Joji Turukoya Katzuky whose body was found in Sigatoka on Thursday, took his own life.
His body was discovered a few metres away from his home in Nabitu Settlement.
Katzuky was wanted for questioning in relation to the murder of his 19-year-old partner last week whose body was found along Sigatoka River last Friday.
He was last seen with his partner, Maraia Boletawa in Nabitu on the same day.
