Nkosinathi Emmanuel Nathi Mthethwa, 58, usually known as Nathi Mthethwa, had reserved a room on the 22nd floor whose secured window had been forced open, the office of the Paris prosecutor told AFP.
A source close to the case, who asked not to be named, said the ambassador suffered from depression and his death could have been suicide.
Mthethwa had been ambassador since December 2023 after a long political career in South Africa.
The ambassador’s disappearance was reported on Monday by his wife, who said she received a worrying message from him in the evening, the prosecutor’s office said.
He was also police minister from 2009 to 2014 and security minister from 2008 to 2009.
Between 2007 and 2022, he was a senior official in the African National Congress, the ruling party since the first post-apartheid democratic elections in 1994.
He worked underground within the ANC’s military wing during apartheid and was notably arrested during the state of emergency in 1989. – AFP
