Shame as robbers raid Tutu’s house while at Mandela's memorial

Desmond Tutu

The home of South African Nobel peace laureate and retired Anglican Archbishop, Desmond Tutu,  was reportedly robbed on Tuesday while he was away at a memorial honouring Nelson Mandela.

Huffintonpost quoted a statement from the police, saying that the robbery had occurred between 7pm and 9pm.  However, it was not clear what exactly was stolen from Tutu’s Cape Town home.
The statement read, “At this stage, we cannot give further details, as the investigation into the matter is still ongoing. No arrests have been made as yet.”
Burglaries and home invasions are said to be a frequent occurrence in South Africa, which has one of the highest crime rates in the world.
Only four months ago, Tutu’s home was robbed while he and his wife slept; both were unhurt in the incident
