Popular Tanzanian singer, Ray C, was rescued by police on Thursday night after she attempted to commit suicide.
The once popular singer who destroyed her life with hard drugs, attracted attention when she started screaming in the middle of the road claiming that kidnappers were after her.
She requested for a knife to end her life as passers-by tried to rescue her.
Popular Tanzanian actress, Esha Buheti, witnessed the drama and said that Ray C’s claims that kidnappers were after her were all hallucinations from drug.
“I thought all through people were making false claims about Ray C sliding back into drug use. However, what I witnessed today broke my heart. We should do something urgently to help Ray C,” the popular actress said.
“I had gone to buy chips at a fast food joint in Kinondoni when I heard someone say that Ray C threatened to strip. I thought it was a joke until I saw Ray C screaming, asking people to rescue her from being kidnapped. She was very strong. When people held her, she started mumbling. She slipped the grip and started looking for a knife to commit suicide.
“People held her, and when she realised she couldn’t get the knife, she lowered herself to a muddy ground and started rolling around. She was yelling at the time. Tears rolled down my cheeks.
“As that happened, police in a patrol car came and picked Ray C up. She screamed yet again, this time loudest. I don’t know where she was taken to. But Ray C appeared to have gone bonkers,” Esha added.
