NEW YORK, Nov. 12 (UPI) — Houston rapper Scarface is facing a lawsuit from famed celebrity jeweler Jacob Arabo over items the musician bought from him years ago.<\/p>\n
Arabo, who is known by his famous customers as Jacob the Jeweler, filed suit against Scarface alleging the rapper never paid him for some jewelry back in 2002, The New York Post said.<\/p>\n
Arabo has claimed that he has attempted to contact Scarface about the missing funds but to no avail, so instead he filed the $37,000 suit against him seeking payment.<\/p>\n
The court case comes after Arabo, who was born Yakov Arabov, was arrested in June on charges that the jeweler had assisted Detroit’s Black Family Mafia launder more than $270 million.<\/p>\n
Scarface, whose real name is Bradley Johnson, had no immediate comment on the lawsuit.<\/p>\n
The Post reported that Arabo has maintained that his arrest in the laundering of the alleged drug profits was a complete misunderstanding.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
