Daily Sun (February 11 2014) - THE suspicious taxi boss confiscated his wife's phone after suspecting her of cheating on him again. When he read her WhatsApp messages, it was too much for him! THE BROKEN-HEARTED MAN ENDED UP SHOOTING HIMSELF DEAD IN FRONT OF HIS OWN HOUSE.

"He told us he couldn't stand reading the dirty messages his wife was ­exchanging with her new lover," said a friend of the 35-year-old man from KwaMashu, north of Durban.

One of the messages that drove the man to suicide read: "Please touch your penis for me and tell him to be patient. I will give him the dessert that he longs for."

Another said: "When we make love roughly I just want to scream due to uncontrollable pleasure."

The man apparently spent Thursday sending his wife's ­embarrassing messages to his close friends and family before finally putting a gun to his own head and shooting himself dead. According to a relative, the messages were complementing the new lover.

One of the man's friends said the man was in tears when he showed him the messages.

"He told me he once caught his wife with another man in their house but decided to forgive her. Now he said he would rather die than share her with another man," said the friend.

He said he understood why his friend was so upset. "In the ­messages the wife tells her new ­lover he turns her on even when they are talking on the phone," said the friend.

"She tells the makhwapheni that he is good in bed while my friend is a good-for-nothing husband."

He said she tells the lover she and her husband haven't slept in the same bedroom for the past two years. "I think the wife was lucky. ­Other men would have hurt her ­after reading those messages," he said.

The wife invited the SunTeam to her home.

"Those people who told you this, did they tell you the life I had been living in this home?

"Did they tell you what events led to those messages?" she said.

But when the SunTeam called her on the phone outside her home, she changed her mind. She said she wasn't home.

Captain Thulani Zwane said an inquest docket was opened for ­investigation at KwaMashu Police Station.
