Dubai justice officials are to meet on Monday with representatives of a well-known Filipino rock guitarist arrested for marijuana possession on his way to a sell-out show in the emirate.
Led Zeppelin Tuyay (pictured right), the guitarist of rock band, Kamikazee, was arrested at Dubai International Airport after the band’s arrival in Dubai last Thursday, for the “Rakrakan Fest”, which drew 16,000 people to Festival City to hear some of the Philippines’ biggest bands.
Tuyay missed the show but his band members played on without him along with other Filipino bands Bamboo, Pupil, and veteran rockers The Dawn.
Tuyay could face jail and deportation from the UAE if found guilty of drug possession.
Band manager, Richard Tan, told 7DAYS that there is no indication yet of when Tuyay will make a court appearance.
Tan said Tuyay is holding up “pretty well”.
“Its difficult because of Eid, we have not been able to reach anybody to find out about his case,” he said.
