Sorry if you though Koffi Olomide would rot in jail for one and a half year, justice is lenient for the rich and superstars!!
Koffi Olomide was sentenced to 547 days in prison in a hurried court process after he was arrested and taken to court when landed in Kinshasa from Kenya where he was deported from.
The veteran Congolese singer was caught on camera assaulting one of his dancers at JKIA sparking public uproar that saw him kicked out of Kenya.
Koffi who was arrested and sentenced to a prison term on Tuesday 26th, was released from prison on Thursday 28th July. (He was the guest of the state for two days ONLY.)
But why did Congolese authority free Koffi??? Koffi’s lawyer told the press that his client was granted bail because he couldn’t flee from Congo to seek refuge in another country.
“Prosecutors granted bail to Koffi Olomide because he does not present a flight risk. The defence has shown that the singer has a known residence, is a famous music star and his principal interests are here in DRC.” Koffi’s lawyer was quoted as saying
