Police sources have confirmed that an oversized ‘bleaching cream’ is at the centre of a dispute which saw dancehall artiste Skeng being dragged off a flight destined for Trinidad on Tuesday.

According to the source, the artiste was being escorted through the airport because he was late for the flight.

It is reported that while going through Ports Security Corps, an oversized container of ‘bleaching cream’ was found in his luggage.

Travel-sized liquids, gels, creams and pastes that are approved for travel should be 3.4 ounces or 100 ml or less.

The artiste was reportedly told that the cream would either be confiscated or he could try to have it added to a checked bag.

It is alleged that the artiste began behaving boisterously and disorderly.

He was pulled from the flight.

Skeng was later charged with disorderly behaviour and resisting arrest. The artiste, whose real name is Kevaun Douglas, was offered bail and is slated to appear before the Kingston and St Andrew Parish Court on June 21, 2022.

Skeng and two members of his entourage were expected to be on a flight to Trinidad and Tobago where he is scheduled to perform for the first time.

The two-day event, called ‘Revival: The Return of Dancehall’ was scheduled to happen this weekend at Ranch Setters in Valencia on May 28, and at Space La Nouba nightclub in San Fernando. Skeng was named the headliner for both dates.

Skeng is known for the single Protocol with Tommy Lee Sparta, Heaven Passport with Intence, Gvnman Shift, London and Street Cred.
