A man suspected to be mentally impaired has been filmed hanging on high tension feeder cables in Walewale in the North East Region.
In a viral video online, the alleged mentally challenged man can be seen relaxing as though he was taking a nap.
While it is not clear which day he climbed the high tension, an eyewitness running commentary over the clip disclosed that he climbed the pole in the morning and had since been hanging on top of the wires for hours.
