Official details of his arrest are scant, with rumors swirling that cops nabbed Bandokay for gun possession. The OFB rapper is the son of Mark Duggan, whose killing at the hands of British police in 2011 sparked riots in London that spread across the country.
Bandokay was previously tried for his alleged role in a knife fight at London’s world-famous Selfridges department store. His uncle Marlon Duggan was cleared of violent disorder after he claimed he was acting as a peacekeeper during the incident.
The jury was unable to reach a verdict against Bandokay. Fellow OFB member Double Lz, real name Andre Deer, was convicted of violent disorder.
Bandokay’s current legal woes are believed to be unrelated to the Selfridges incident.
