Cape Town – Shauwn “MaMkhize” Mkhize’s ex-husband, businessman Sibusiso Mpisane has reportedly claimed that the latest break-in at their La Lucia home was an attempt to kill him.
One of the suspects was reportedly shot and injured during the housebreaking while two others managed to flee the scene.
The break-in reportedly occurred on Saturday and police were investigating a case of housebreaking.
According to police the suspects attempted to strike on the southern side of the house and cocked a gun at the homeowner who retaliated, shot and injured one of the suspects.
Responding to concerns about her safety following the incident, MaMkhize said she was not involved, as the incident occurred at the house occupied by her ex-husband, reported IOL.
“Thank you all for the messages of concern, but as you are all aware, I am separated from Sbu Mpisane. The incident that took place does not involve me or my wing of the estate,” the report quoted MaMkhize as saying.
According to Mpisana the incident was an attempt on his life.
He claimed that this was the fourth time intruders broke into his home, reported News24.
