Snoop Ban Lifted
Artist:
Snoop Dogg
Snoop Dogg will be allowed back in the UK after a ban saw him barred from entering English soil.
The Dogg was refused entry after a 2006 brawl at Heathrow airport, that saw five officers injured. However, DVD footage of the fight has exonerated The Dogg after senior immigration judge, George Warr, found there was no evidence that Snoop was responsible for inciting public disorder, nor did he initiate it.
The footage, shown previously on RWD HERE, shows Snoop chatting amiably to young fans at the airport moments before the fight broke out. You can also see a police man shoving Snoop twice, yet Snoop didn't respond. After the incident, the Cali MC was given a caution by authorities. A statement by police also said Snoop had followed instructions by police to lie down, nor did he resist arrest.
Snoop lawyer Philip Trot had this to say to the Guardian: “Wednesday’s decision served as nothing more than a verification of why the case was an appalling waste of public money to pursue this man. It is outrageous that the government is trying to exclude someone who is an innocent figure and has frequently spoken against gang culture and youths carrying guns.”
We look forward to welcoming Snoopy back in the UK!
