Another dancehall artiste is being held by police, pending investigations into a matter in which he was alleged to be involved.

The Portmore-based artiste has been behind bars at the Portmore Police Station (100 Man) since Wednesday.

The police were not willing to divulge much information, but confirmed that the unfortunate artiste had spent Wednesday night in a jail cell located along a section of the station known as 'long block.' "He was brought in since Wednesday. Is the second artiste in jail here now ... Bounty Killer is here too so we are getting a number of people coming to try and see them, Bounty especially," said the police source on condition of anonymity.

THE Weekend STAR was unable to confirm up to press time if the artiste was released or if he would be charged.
