Jamaican dancehall bad boy and self-titled Gully Gad, David 'Mavado' Brooks is expected to file an application through his lawyers to have his travel documents returned to him soon because he could lose millions of dollars if he is unable to honour his commitments overseas.

Some people have questioned the timing of the deejay's arrest which took place almost eight months after the incident was first reported. Inspector Michael Campbell of the Major Investigation Team (MIT).

"There is no time limit for the investigations which have to be carried out by the police and it largely depends on the leads we get and the co-operation of people who know about the incident. Regardless of how long the investigations last, the police will not close a case until there is sufficient information to make an arrest," Inspector Campbell told One876Entertainment.com.

He is expected to return to Gun Court on May 27. He is scheduled to perform at big shows like Best of the Best in Miami, Florida soon as well.

This is not the 'Gangster for Life's first run-in with the law. In September 2006, the police say they received a report that on September 23 of that year Mavado and a group of men had an altercation with another man during an entertainment event Mannings Hill Road. The man was alleged to have been attacked and injured. The police then went to Cassava Piece, and were in the process of arresting Mavado on a charge of assault occasioning bodily harm, when they were blocked by residents.

Later, after the deejay turned himself in, Mavado and a policeman at the station clashed resulting in the deejay incurring a second charge of resisting arrest. During the brawl, the deejay almost lost his fingers when three of his fingers were partially severed and subsequently re-attached by a doctor. He had allegedly been pushed through a glass window by the policeman. In January 2007, Mavado was also arrested and charged with possession of ganga.

The deejay has had a tumultuous last couple of weeks as he allegedly threatened a member of the local media fraternity after a story which he claimed 'dissed' him had been published on the Internet. There was also an allegation that men aligned to Mavado had beaten up a young man affiliated to that website. The matter was subsequently resolved between the young man, Mavado and the Minister of Entertainment during a meeting held last week.
