LONDON - Michael Jackson’s family has stripped the King of Pop’s belongings from his rented home before bailiffs could swoop.

According to reports, at the weekend the family ordered removal vans to take millions of pounds’ worth of his possessions from the house, reports The Sun.

The 50-year-old superstar was renting the 100,000 pound-a-month mansion in Holmby Hills, LA.

A security guard at the house said: “Now detectives have finished looking over the house, the family are removing Michael’s most precious possessions.

“They are worried the scavengers and bailiffs will get in there if they don’t act quickly.

“He owed a lot of money and they could empty it pretty quickly.” (ANI)
