Wiz Khalifa Reportedly Indicted On ‘Illicit Drug Use’ Charges In Romania
Wiz Khalifa is reportedly facing drug charges in Romania.
A report from Romania-Insider states that the 37-year-old, real name Cameron Thomaz, was indicted during a Constan?a Tribunal on Oct. 16th, which saw the country charge him with “illicit drug use.”
The case stems from Wiz Khalifa’s headlining performance at the Beach, Please! Festival on July 13 of this year. The rapper was reportedly detained after sparking a joint on stage, as recreational marijuana use is still illegal in the European nation.
Romanian authorities released a statement after videos of the rapper’s arrest went viral, stating:
“Investigations revealed that during a performance at a music festival in the Costine?ti resort, Constan?a County, [Wiz] possessed more than 18 grams of cannabis (a risk drug) and consumed another quantity of cannabis on stage in the form of a hand-rolled cigarette.”

Wiz Khalifa took to his X account the day after the incident showing remorse, writing:
“Last nights show was amazing. I didn’t mean any disrespect to the country of Romania by lighting up on stage. They were very respectful and let me go. I’ll be back soon. But without a big a** joint next time”
It has not been reported that Wiz nor his attorneys have responded to the indictment at this time.
