The Aberdeen Sheriff Court in Scotland has reportedly discharged gospel artiste, Sammy Okposo, in a case bordering on racially aggravating behaviours during an infraction that occured at a Chinese restaurant, Jimmy Chung's, at the Aberdeen Beach Esplanade, Scotland, last July. According to a statement from the singer's publicists, "Okposo was discharged and acquitted of all charges on April 8 at exactly 11:30am by the presiding judge who said the evidences brought against Sammy are insufficient, incoherent and baseless. The most surprising aspect of the court proceedings was that Okposo wasn't called upon at any time by the judge to step into the witness box. The judge pronounced his judgement after Okposo's lawyer, Ms Val Bremmer from Mackie and Dewar Solicitors, cross examined the manager and the assistant manager of Jimmy Chung's and discovered that their testimonies were incoherent."

Okposo was honeymooning with his wife in Aberdeen when he was arrested after he got into an argument with one of the attendants at Jimmy Chung's which operates an all-you-can-eat menu. He was supposed to appear in court last September for the first hearing but E-Punch could not ascertain whether he did. This acquittal is happening about two weeks to the commencement of Okposo's Out Of Africa, North American 2011 Tour.
