Nambitha Mpumlwana Fires Back at Shoplifting Allegations

 Nambitha Mpumlwana Fires Back at Shoplifting Allegations


Veteran actress Nambitha Mpumlwana has broken her silence after being arrested for allegedly stealing lipsticks worth R160 from a Dis-Chem store in Ferndale Mall.

The Allegations

  • The Generations star was accused of pocketing lipsticks without paying

  • Arrested and released on R1,000 bail in Randburg Magistrate Court

  • Police source claims she called it a "misunderstanding"

Nambitha's Response


While avoiding direct comment, the actress subtly addressed the drama:
✅ Liked an Instagram comment saying: "Why are people telling lies?"
✅ Posted a cryptic message: "Sometimes you just have to let people be wrong about you"

Generations' Shoplifting History

Nambitha isn't the first from the soapie to face such claims:

  • 2013: Maggie Benedict (Akhona) arrested for allegedly stealing Panados

  • Benedict maintained innocence, citing faulty store cameras

  • Case dismissed in 2015 due to lack of evidence

Public Reaction


The incident has sparked debate:

  • Some question if the arrest was excessive for R160 lipsticks

  • Others argue stores must enforce policies equally

  • Many await Nambitha's full side of the story

The Big Questions:

  • Should celebrities receive special treatment in such cases?

  • Is R1,000 bail reasonable for a minor shoplifting allegation?

  • Will this affect Nambitha's acting career?
