21 SAVAGE ARRESTED FOR ILLEGALLY REMAINING IN THE US


The biggest news of the week was the arrest of rapper 21 Savage by America's Immigration and Custom Enforcement (ICE) agents for being in the country illegally.Though 21 claims to be from Atlanta,he and his parents came to the US in 2005 on a visa that expired the following year.The rapper is said to have applied for a U-Visa,which allows a victim of a crime to seek permanent stay in 2014 after he was wounded in the fatal shooting of his best friend.He applied again in 2017 but both requests went unanswered.
A lot of entertainment personalities have criticized ICE's move to have 21 deported and hip hop mogul,Jay-Z has hired a team of lawyers to help fight against that.21 Savage is claiming he is being targeted for his lyrics against immigration officials.
