Marbella's most famous Irish resident, communicator extraordinaire, Maurice Boland kissed the Blarney stone and, following a stint as a nightclub owner, carved himself an exemplary career in the local media.
From karaoke host of the 80s, he became the most prominent radio DJ of the 90s with his daily radio chat show on Onda Cero International.
Maurice , said in an interview recently he was sick and tired of the British press constantly tagging the Costa as a haven for criminals and crime. There is more crime in London, he stoutly maintained. On Monday night as Maurice settled into a night in front of the television a gang of robbers were breaking into the bedroom wing upstairs in Boland's magnificent million-pound mansion, set in the hills overlooking Marbella.
"It looked like a bomb site," said Maurice , "the bedroom was a mess. To be honest I thought they were still in the house it was a terrifying experience. The police arrived very quickly and started to examine the crime scene."
It was then that Maurice's wife Wendy realised that all her expensive jewellery was gone along with Maurice's Cartier watch and the spare key to his Mercedes.
"The irony," he laughed , "was that I had to give an interview the following morning to Sir Trevor Mcdonald on how Marbella is virtually crime free".
