A message to the account department to send the money to Ghana. So it took this for that to happen? So if Black Sherif wasn\u2019t arrested they weren\u2019t going to do this?\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ ALSO:\u00a0Why Black Sherif Has Been Arrested<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Daniel noted that prior to this, he had served the agency a letter on the refusal of Black Sherif to record a video to confirm his availability for the Afro Cruise Jam. However, according to him, neither the agency nor the close team members of the artistes responded to the content of the letter.<\/p>\n<p>The 21-year-old music star was picked up by the police when he got to the Kotoka International Airport on Wednesday, July 19, 2023, after performing at the biggest music festivals across the US and Europe this summer.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, because Black Sherif and his team were unyielding to the agreement to produce a promotional video for their event, he decided to hand him over to the police and the immigration.<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ ALSO:\u00a0Ghanaian Blogger Gh Hyper Faces Backlash for Biased Reporting on Black Sherif\u2019s Alleged Arrest<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Cruise People Limited boss mentioned that some time in June 2023, \u201cwe petitioned the director CID and asked that he be arrested. You how many calls came from the police that he ignored. You don\u2019t wanna know that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe police will just not wake up and arrest Black Sherif on a baseless or flimsy excuse from us. We submitted everything. So based on that the police secured an arrest warrant from the court and then informed the immigration because where were we going to find him. So it was either when he is leaving or he is coming. So the immigration stopped him, handed him over to the police,\u201d he further stated.<\/p>\n<p><div class=\"youtube-embed\" data-video_id=\"IHGdEMIjx4c\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"We booked Black Sherif through his agent - CEO, Cruise People Ltd\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/IHGdEMIjx4c?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Daniel said Black Sherif was later taken to the police station to assist in the investigation of the matter.<\/p>\n<p>Asked if he could not have resorted to other means apart from the police, he said his lawyers had earlier written to the United Talent Agency, and that other stakeholders had also reached out to Black\u2019s team but to no avail.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, he is seeking to take a civil action against Black Sherif, to get a refund of his money and damages for the losses he made.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Source: Myjoyonline.com\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><!-- relpost-thumb-wrapper --><!-- close relpost-thumb-wrapper --><\/p>\n<div class=\"sharedaddy sd-block sd-like jetpack-likes-widget-wrapper jetpack-likes-widget-unloaded\" id=\"like-post-wrapper-186753398-9799-64b98ff8b1f59\" data-src=\"https:\/\/widgets.wp.com\/likes\/#blog_id=186753398&amp;post_id=9799&amp;origin=www.onemuzikgh.com&amp;obj_id=186753398-9799-64b98ff8b1f59\" data-name=\"like-post-frame-186753398-9799-64b98ff8b1f59\" data-title=\"Like or Reblog\">\n<h3 class=\"sd-title\">Like this:<\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"button\"><span>Like<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"loading\">Loading&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"sd-text-color\"\/><\/div>\n<p><h3 class=\"jp-relatedposts-headline\"><em>Related<\/em><\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-1\" style=\"margin: 8px auto; text-align: center; display: block; clear: both;\">\n<div class=\"banner\">\n<p>    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/1689882920_670_onemuzikgh_whatsapp.jpg\" alt=\"Banner Image\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/1689882919_285_onemuzikgh_whatsapp.jpg\"  class=\" jetpack-lazy-image\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" data-lazy-fallback=\"1\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/1689882920_670_onemuzikgh_whatsapp.jpg\" alt=\"Banner Image\"\/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- AI CONTENT END 2 --><\/p>\n<p> <!-- A generated by theme --> <\/p>\n<p> <!-- end A --> <\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Daniel Vanderpuye, the Chief Executive Officer of Cruise People Limited, the company that caused Black Sherif\u2019s arrest on Wednesday, July 19, 2023, has revealed how his action has caused Black Sherif\u2019s booking agents to respond to their dormant mail trail.
