Randburg-Gauteng police are investigating a buglary case after thieves broke into Afro-Jazz songstress Lira’s house.

Lerato Molapo and her husband Robin Kohl allegedly caught thieves red-handed.

Lira spokesperson Mokibelo Magome told City Press that thieves stole all awards Lira won.

“They stole her furniture, music equipment and all awards. She is very upset about the incident, but pleased at the same time because no one was injured” Mokibelo Magome told City Press.

“My house was robbed last night. And 10 of my SAMA statuettes were taken along” Lira said on her official twitter page.

According to reports, Lira left home at around 4pm yesterday as she was set to perform at Thaba Ya Batswana hotel on Women’s Day.

Magome said the couple went to visit friends afterwards and allegedly arrived home at midnight where they experienced atrocity.

Police were called and buglars allegedly escaped through neighbouring house.

The couple share a house in Randburg, Johannesburg.

Magome said a case of theft has been launched at Randburg Police Station.

Lira is set to perform at Moses Mabhida stadium alongside Robert Sylvester Kelly on his Single Ladies Tour tonight.-TDN
