His management confirmed the development to Khaleej Times. While the latest update claims that he has been released following theft charges, reports about him being arrested are also doing the rounds on the internet.
India Today quoted S-Line Project, who manages Abdu, saying: "First of all, he is not arrested, he was only detained by the police. Abdu Rozik gave his explanations and was released. Today he will participate in the award ceremony which will be held in Dubai."
'Secondly information in media is not correct. We will take all legal action to protect Abdu Rozik and his image,' it added further.
Abdu Rozik is in Dubai to attend an award ceremony.
His team also told the news portal, 'Also we will provide you with all information later on to inform Indian people. Believe us we have a lot to say regarding this issue.'
Previously, his management confirmed the news of being detained at Dubai airport. News18 quoted them: 'All we can say is that we are aware he (Abdu Rozik) has been taken into custody on allegations of theft."
Abdu is a social media sensation who stands over three feet tall due to a growth hormone deficiency.
He also suffered from rickets at the age of five. Later, he stopped growing. Talking about his condition, Abdu had once shared how he was bullied and mocked during his teens for his height. He said even his teachers refused to give him stationery or books as they believed it would be a waste. As a result, he could only get three years of formal education while growing up.
He is also a singer and one of the most popular social media celebrities in the Middle East and South Asia, and also a recipient of the UAE Golden Visa. Besides the showbiz industry, he is also a boxer, and an entrepreneur.
However, this isn't the first time Abdu Rozik has been caught in a controversy. In 2023, he was questioned by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in India regarding a money laundering probe linked to a hospitality company. He wasn't officially listed as an accused in the matter.
