THE STAR has learnt that United States (US) officials are also probing a roots/reggae singer for drug-related allegations.

Reports are that the singer has appeared on the US radar as officials continue their investigations in the alleged involvement of local artistes in drug runnings.

According to a law enforcement officer, who spoke to THE STAR recently, the documents are being processed for the possible arrest of the singer.

The singer's name is well known in entertainment circles but has no major local hits. He is also involved in production and promoting of events.

The latest revelation comes after the same law enforcement officer revealed that they are also planning to seek a popular deejay on drug-related allegations.

THE STAR was informed that the deejay who has had several hit songs locally is being sought in Michigan in the US on drug-related allegations. He is reported to be wanted on at least two warrants.

The Corporate Area-based deejay is also been labelled as an associate of former west Kingston strongman Christopher 'Dudus' Coke, who is currently awaiting sentencing in the US.

Coke pleaded guilty to one count of racketeering conspiracy and one count of conspiracy to commit assault with a dangerous weapon in aid of racketeering.
