Wiz Khalifa Sentenced to 9 Months in Romanian Prison

Last year, Wiz Khalifa was detained in Romania after lighting a joint onstage at the Beach Please music festival. The moment went viral and set off a legal process that’s stretched into this year.

Now, according to reports, a Romanian court has handed down a nine-month prison sentence tied to the case. Details about whether the sentence includes time to be served, a suspended term, probation, or appeal options have not been fully clarified publicly.

Wiz has not issued a detailed statement at the time of this post. His representatives have also not responded to requests for comment regarding next legal steps or potential appeals.

With a sentence now in play, all eyes are on whether Wiz will appeal or negotiate terms of serving the time. We’ll update as official documents and statements are released.
