The search is on for the suspect who robbed Esther Mahlangu

JOHANNESBURG - Mpumalanga police are searching for a man who robbed and assaulted world-renowned artist Esther Mahlangu at gunpoint.Police said on Monday the man allegedly grabbed the elderly woman and punched her in the face before tying both her hands with a cable. She was also strangled until she was unconscious. Mahlangu told officers that, after gaining consciousness, she found her house ransacked and her firearm and an undisclosed amount of money stolen from the safe.

Mahlangu told officers that her home was ransacked and her firearm had been stolen from her safe along with an undisclosed amount of cash .Mpumalanga police spokesperson Selvy Mohlala said: "She sustained burises on her face. Currently the suspect is not known and fled. We request anyone with information who can assist should contact the nearest police station."She's been recognised internationally with a painting on a boulevard in New York.

What concerns me is that she had a firearm, at her age - she has a firearm? Is she competent to use that firearm? I think it's important to know - it's like last week, I saw an old lady on the N1 doing 50km/h in the fast lane with 0ero-Fux-ToGive. It's dangerous.

Bastards!!!!
