Willy Paul Speaks After Being Released From Custody

Musician Willy Paul was released from police custody on Monday, March 4, after a dramatic arrest at his residence in Syokimau.

Prior to the arrest, Paul had posted on Instagram claiming police were outside his home, putting his life in danger, and accusing him of hitting a pedestrian. However, it has been revealed that the arrest stemmed from his failure to appear in court for a cyberbullying case filed by Diana Bahati, wife of musician Kelvin Kioko (Bahati).

Caroline Giseve, lawyer representing Diana Bahati, confirmed to reporters that Paul was arrested on cyberbullying charges. Paul has not yet publicly addressed the specific accusations.

Following his release, Paul took to Instagram to thank his fans for their support, expressing his gratitude and stating he was “home safe and sound.” He did not disclose any details regarding the arrest or the charges against him.
