Mavado's Manager, Julian Jones-Griffiths, yesterday laid to rest rumours that the 'Gully Gad' was robbed in Canada on the weekend.

On Sunday, reports surfaced on the Internet that Mavado was robbed at a recording studio while doing some dubs in the country.

However, Jones-Griffiths denied those claims.

"I was sitting in a truck outside the studio. Three idiot ride up with a gun and tell me to wind down the window. When I did that, him grab mi laptop and mi phone and run off. No money, no jewels or nothing like that," he toldTHE STAR, while waiting to board his flight back to Jamaica yesterday.

"Dem have the gun and me see seh dem nah use it so mi just mek him gwaan wid it. I can buy another laptop. What's a laptop and a phone when I have life?"

At the time of the incident, he said, Mavado was inside the studio.

"No Mavado nothing. People been saying he was robbed 80 gran. Nothing like that," Jones-Griffiths said.

Since the incident occurred, he said some contact was made with the culprits for them to return the stolen items, "but dem just fraid fi meet wi," he said.

Along with Stacious, Mavado has been has on tour in Canada for almost two weeks.

But two years ago, Mavado was actually robbed while overseas. Serani was robbed of his jewellery, money and wallet in St Croix last year. Beenie Man's Rolex was stolen while in London in 2006.
