Wiz Khalifa could be facing an uphill legal battle in Romania. Related to a drug possession case earlier this year.
The rap star, born Cameron Jibril Thomaz, violated Romanian law when he lit up a marijuana joint on stage during his appearance at the Beach Please! Festival in Continesti.
Wiz Khalifa Facing Prison Time Over Drug Possession
Although many countries have rescheduled marijuana to no longer be an illegal substance, that isn’t the case for all countries. And the drug is still very illegal in Romania. After the infraction, Wiz took to social media to express his regret.
“Last night’s show was amazing. I didn’t mean any disrespect to the country of Romania by lighting up on stage. They were very respectful and let me go. I’ll be back soon. But without a big ass joint next time,” he wrote in a social media post back in July.

However, an apology may not be enough for the rap star to avoid consequences for his actions. According to a December 18 report from TMZ, Khalifa could be facing a nine-month bid in Romanian prison for drug possession.
However, the outlet also notes that nothing has been “set in stone” as of yet, as Khalifa and his team are still amid the appeals process.
