Anthony B cancels festivals in Venezuela and Colombia due to legal issues in the USA!
Jamaican Anthony B had to cancel his performance at two large and important festivals (United Festival and Jamming Festival) in Venezuela and Colombia. The artist is prevented from leaving the United States after being arrested in January for possession of marijuana on a road in the state of Georgia. At the time, the singjay was arrested along with nine members of his band carrying $7,900 and 144 grams of marijuana, subsequently accused of "possession with the intent to distribute", even though he claimed that the substance was for personal consumption and the money was obtained during his tour. After paying bail of 1,000 dollars per person, they were all released but are continuing with the court case and cannot leave the country until trial.
