Let $\bbcq$ be the quantum torus associated with the $d \times d$ matrix $q = (q_{ij})$, $q_{ii} = 1$, $q_{ij}^{-1} = q_{ji}$, $q_{ij}$ are roots of unity, for all $1 \leq i, j \leq d.$ Let $\Der(\bbcq)$ be the Lie algebra of all the derivations of $\bbcq$. In this paper we define the Lie algebra $\Der(\bbcq) \ltimes \bbcq$ and classify its modules which are irreducible and have finite dimensional weight spaces. These modules under certain conditions turn out to be of the form $V \otimes \bbcq$, where $V$ is a finite dimensional irreducible $gl_d$-module.
