Reggae star Jah Cure, who is behind bars in the Netherlands following an alleged stabbing incident, will remain in custody until next week when he is expected to know the court’s decision in the matter.
The entertainer, whose real name is Siccature Alcock, on Tuesday appeared in the Council Chamber — part of the Amsterdam court — and was detained for another seven days. He has been behind bars in that country since October 2.
The “Unconditional Love” singer will reappear in the Council Chamber next Monday, Franklin Wattimena, press officer of the Netherlands Public Prosecution Service, told Loop News on Wednesday.
“The decision of the court will be announced a day later," Wattimena said.
Jah Cure was arrested following a stabbing incident in Dam Square in the city centre of Amsterdam on October 1, allegedly involving the concert promoter.
Police reports suggest that after the incident, the alleged victim reported the matter to the police and, after a quick investigation, the police arrested Jah Cure in Utrecht on October 2.
Jah Cure marked his 43rd birthday behind bars on October 11.
