GILLIE DA KID RELEASED FROM JAIL
Rapper GILLIE DA KID has been released from jail after being arrested and charged with drug dealing in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania earlier this month (06FEB07), his manager has confirmed.
Gillie Da Kid - real name S’ARD NASIR - was arrested with five other people on 6 February (07) after police discovered 89 pounds (40 kilograms) of marijuana, worth an estimated $404,000 (£207,179), at two addresses in the city.
The rapper was freed from custody on Friday (16FEB07), but he and his associates stand accused of conspiracy and possessing narcotics with intent to deliver.
Nasir’s manager, YANNA B. says, "He is extremely happy to be home and is resting comfortably with his family. He maintains his innocence and is looking forward to promoting and releasing his upcoming mixtape album." The former MAJOR FIGGAS member is also under investigation for his involvement in another house in the area, where police confiscated cocaine worth $6 million (£3,075,000) last year (06), according to AllHipHop.com.
