Award-winning Malian singer Rokia Traore was scheduled to perform at the Colosseum in Rome on Sunday (June 23), but was arrested beforehand and the event was cancelled.
Singer and Belgian playwright Jan Goosens have filed suit in France, Mali and Belgium to obtain sole custody of their daughter.
According to reports, the verdicts awarded custody to one of them.
