Despite reports that deejay Vybz Kartel is to spend another 30 days in jail, Reggae Sumfest promoters remain optimistic that he will be on the show.
The artiste, whose real name is Adidja Palmer, was detained over a week ago after he was listed among six men whose names was released three days earlier by the police and were urged to turn themselves in.
After doing so, his 24-hour detention was extended to five days.
The artiste's legal representative, lawyer Christian Tavares-Finson, says that Kartel's five-day detention order was extended again, this time for another 30 days, as Kartel was served with papers which informed him of the development.
When contacted, chairman of Summerfest Productions, Robert Russell, said there are still hopes that Vybz Kartel will perform on dancehall night at Reggae Sumfest, scheduled to take place in Catherine Hall, Montego Bay, on July 22.
"We are expecting that he will be released in time for the performance"
