Makola also alleged that the artist had protection from certain police officials who sometimes frustrated victims.
"The complainant's signature was faked. When I visited him to discuss the case, he was shocked to learn that the case had been withdrawn," said Makola.
Social media user @Am_Blujay shared on his X account on Monday, 8 December 2025, that the Lekompo artist was denied bail.
"Shock for Lekompo fans as Shebeshxt denied bail," said the artist.
