Lynn Forbes, AKA’s mother, broke her silence on the arrest of alleged suspects in connection with the rapper’s death in an Instagram post on Wednesday, March 29.
Kiernan Jarryd Forbes, also known as AKA, and his friend Tebello “Tibz” Motsoane were shot dead outside Wish restaurant on Florida Road in Durban on February 10.
According to IOL, three suspects have been arrested in Cape Town in connection with AKA’s murder. The suspects are reportedly still being held by police in Cape Town. The suspects will reportedly be taken to Durban, KwaZulu-Natal (KZN), where they will be charged. Netwerk24 later reported that two more men were apprehended in Belhar after police had been following them for weeks.
“We are at a loss for words to describe or gratitude for the outpouring of love that we’ve received from the Megacy. We’ve seen people deeply hurt and angered by Kiernan murder and wanting justice. As a family, we empathise with the grief experienced and we understand your pain,” she wrote.
Lynn expressed that the family is concerned about the accusations and assumptions causing more harm than good
“We are aware of the growing public discontent related to the progress which has been made in the investigation. However, as a family, we are deeply concerned that irresponsible actions, accusations and assumptions may cause more harm than good,” she wrote.
“At this time, we call on the Megacy to mourn responsibly and ask for patience so that the law enforcers have the space to do their job. We humbly request that you continue celebrating Kiernan’s life, preserve his memory and continue his legacy through his music. Your joyous celebration of his life gives us comfort,” she continued.
The mom of two went on to warn fans that they have not asked for any donations.
“Lastly, we would like to bring to your attention that there are false requests for donations and investments from people posing as members of the Forbes family. We have not opened any donation accounts or requested investments,” she added.
