Wiz Khalifa Added to Romanian Wanted List After Nine-Month Sentence
wiz khalifa has been added to the Romanian Police’s list of wanted persons after a nine-month prison sentence for drug possession became final. The move turns a festival case from 2024 into an active enforcement listing.
Costinești Festival Case
Police say Thomaz Cameron Jibril is wanted under an arrest warrant for "drug-related offenses" and describe the conviction as "possession of risk drugs without authorization for personal consumption." That wording matters because the warrant follows the court outcome, not just the stage-side episode that started the case.
The case stems from a 2024 festival in Costinești on the Black Sea coast, where the rapper smoked a cannabis cigarette on stage. Romanian police later found 18 grams of cannabis in his possession, the amount tied to the drug-possession charge.
February Court Ruling
In February this year, the Constanța Court of Appeal rejected his annulment appeal and rejected his request to suspend execution of the prison sentence. That left the nine-month term in place and gave police the basis to move him onto the wanted persons list.
The sequence is unusually public for a criminal case involving an American performer: a stage incident, a measured drug seizure, a failed appeal, then a wanted listing. For readers tracking the legal outcome rather than the celebrity angle, the key change is that the conviction has moved from courtroom record to police action.
Romanian Police Listing
The practical result is straightforward. Romanian authorities now treat the case as an arrest-warrant matter tied to a final sentence, and any return to the country would meet an active police listing rather than a dormant file.
What happens next is the enforcement step, not another round of speculation. The sentence is nine months, the warrant is already issued, and the police designation is now attached to Wiz Khalifa’s legal name.
