Tanzania singer, Naseeb Abdul Juma, better known by his stage name, Diamond Platnumz was on Wednesday, February 22, 2017, summoned by the Tanzania Revenue Authority over drug trafficking links.
The ”Number one” crooner was asked by the authority to hand in a report on his source of wealth and a statement on his tax returns over drug trafficking links in the country.
The recording artiste, who recently welcomed a baby boy with his girlfriend, Zari was earlier listed as a suspected drug trafficker operating in Tanzania.
He appeared before the investigative agency in Dar-es-Salaam, where he faced serious probing with his documents being inspected. After the documents were inspected and cleared of drug trafficking charges, the Tanzania Revenue Authority handed the singer a clean bill of health for complying with the law.
Diamond Platnumz has won numerous awards at Channel O and the HiPipo Music Awards.
He is considered the most loved and decorated Tanzanian artiste at the moment.
