According to a local media website in Texas, Nigerian rapper Sinzu has
been indicted by a Collin County grand jury in Texas on a charge of
fraudulent use of identification.
The website lists Collin County grand jury returned 26 bills of
indictment on April 1, 2014 with Sinzu’s being the 16th on the list. The
indictment was filed by Texas Plano Police.
Sinzu is currently being investigated for being involved in a $300 debit
card fraud case which started with an incident in Houston. Several days
after a US website released a video placing the rapper at the scene,
Sinzu (real name Babalola Falemi) responded to a friend’s question
denying his involvement.
Contrary
to reports from gossip blogs, it is possible the Nigerian rapper was
not arrested. A practicing lawyer informs NET that a person can be
indicted but yet not arrested. ‘It simply means that the prosecutor
presented the case to a grand jury and they returned a decision that the
prosecutor had enough of a case to charge the defendant and bring the
case to trial‘.
Sinzu has still not released an official statement over the controversial matter but has deleted his Instagram page.
