Shatta Wale released on bail: Manager confirms

The dancehall star, Shatta Wale released on bail by the Economic and Organized Crime Office (EOCO). In a new statement, his PRO, Sammy Flex, confirmed the news. “The good news is that Shatta has been arrested and released,” he said. He added, “once again, another good news is that the bail conditions were released.” The initial GHC10 million bail was reportedly reduced to GHC5 million. His legal team must still provide two sureties. He will also report to EOCO three times a week.

Shatta Wale’s team is now working to meet the bail terms. They aim to secure his full release by Thursday. Sammy Flex praised the support they received. “We are grateful to the media, fans, management, and supporters for standing by him,” he stated. He added, “Shatta Wale is forever grateful.” This update provides a sense of hope for his supporters. It moves the case into a new, crucial phase.

Fans immediately responded on social media. They flooded various platforms with messages of relief and support. For example, many supporters shared celebratory posts and videos. This shows the loyalty of his fan base, the “Shatta Movement.” Shatta Wale had previously turned himself in voluntarily. He went to the EOCO offices on Wednesday. He did this with his lawyer. This action, therefore, shows his full cooperation with the investigation. The case specifically concerns tax compliance on his Lamborghini Urus. It also relates to his business activities. The bail decision is a key step in the process. It allows him to prepare his defense from outside of detention.
