Chicco Twalaʼs son finds himself behind bars after breaking into his father’s studio and steal some quite expensive equipments.
According to Sunday World, the South African legend Chicco Twala did not hesitate to admit that his son stole from him.
This was confirmed by Longwe’s father, Twala, who said Longwe committed the robbery with his brother Sello Twala.
Twala said the incident happened when he was abroad in the US. It is unclear when the incident happened.
Not caring about good or bad publicity
“Good or bad publicity I don’t care. I won’t sit and watch a drug addict continuously stealing from me and be silent,” said Twala in a statement.
“Yes, I can confirm that when I was in the USA, my son Longwe and his brother Sello Twala colluded and stole my equipment in the studio.
“Longwe whom I chased away a while ago because of his drug addiction jumped the high walls, broke into my studio, and stole my stuff.
“I saw the likes of the late Hope Zinde, and many parents killed by their own flash and blood because of this drug addiction.
“Him and his younger brother have been stealing from me for a long time. Hence, I decided that enough was enough… Let them rot in jail,” said Twala.
A source close to the incident said a case has been opened at the Douglasdale police station.
“Case was opened at Douglasdale police station. They broke into their father’s studios while on drugs and stole equipment worth thousands,” said the source.
Sunday World reported in February that Longwe was languishing in a drug rehabilitation facility again.
Longwe had been admitted to a rehabilitation centre in Brakpan, east of Johannesburg, after falling off the wagon.
His relapse occurred after he had successfully discarded his bad habits when he was at a drug rehabilitation centre in Tshwane in 2022.
