IT has emerged that a Bulawayo woman who committed suicide in Germany was in a a�?closea�? relationship with How Mine goalkeeper Munyaradzi Diya and could have been communicating with him days before taking her life.

Lynette Nxumalo (24) threw herself in front of a moving train in Germany after she discovered that she was pregnant.

Sources from the Nxumalo family said they were touched by Diyaa��s presence during the funeral wake right up to burial.

a�?He came everyday,a�? said the source adding that it appeared as if, a�?he was constantly in touch with our daughter,a�? said the source.

The late Nxumalo was in her third month in Germany where she was working and studying. She left a suicide note for her family whose detailed contents were not revealed other than that it was a form of apology.

A source from Diyaa��s circles added another dimension, he could have been in a love relationship with the late.

a�?He was very emotional about the sudden passing away of Lynette. They had been together for about two to three years. It seemed to be a serious relationship that almost every member of Lynettea��s family knew about it,a�? said the source.

Diya attended the funeral with fellow team mates, namely skipper Tapiwa Khumbuyani, Tawanda Muparati, Qadr Amini and Moses Gutu.

a�?They went with him in solidarity,a�? the source said.

Diya told B-Metro that it was not his rightful place to speak because her family was in grief.

a�?Those people are still grieving. Ita��s prudent for me not to say anything. Ita��s a complicated situation. If I say she was pregnant and they ask if I was responsible, how will I respond? My hands are tied,a�? he said.

Lynettea��s mother refused to comment as she was still hurt about the passing on of her child. .
