Musician Donald Gelu and his family have filed a police complaint against the band Wild Pack.
Gelu, known as Ragga Siai to fans, confirmed this with Loop PNG today.
He said a complaint was laid at the Boroko Police Station, last Thursday, January 4th, as soon as he arrived in Port Moresby from Rabaul.
The complaint is based on cyberbullying and attempted murder, following the physical assault perpetrated on him by the lead singer of the Wild Pack band.
“Everything is now in the hands of the police. They will commence their investigation and charge accordingly,” he said.
Speaking to the media for the first time, since the viral video on Facebook, Gelu cleared the confusion on the cause of the fight.
“There are rumours on social media saying I stole money from the band or I stole a song from the band. These are not true. I was accused of hitting another member of the band, that’s why I was attacked,” he said.
The 17 year old was in Rabaul, performing with other musicians, including the Wild Pack band, when the incident happened.
The rest of the group travelled onto Kavieng for another performance, leaving Gelu behind in Rabaul.
Gelu is now in Port Moresby.
He is thanking his fans for the support following the incident.
