Nicki Minaj was arrested in Amsterdam, forcing her gig in Manchester to be cancelled
The pop star was arrested at Schiphol Airport, Amsterdam, on Saturday afternoon - hours before her gig in Manchester at the Co-op Live was due to go ahead. It eventually led to the gig being forced to be cancelled - leaving thousands of fans inside the arena 'raging'.
And now, in an update, Major Robert van Kapel, from the Royal Netherlands military police, told Sky News at around 9.15pm that the woman had been released around 20 minutes previously from the Royal Marshal’s Office at Schiphol Airport. “But I can say that 20 minutes ago she’s left. So probably she’s on her way to her next destination.”
“But we have seen, of course, social media, and the only thing we have to do is do a thorough investigation. And that’s what we did and there’s no reason to any longer in custody. She can go wherever she has to go.”
