The management also revealed that the band is working closely with the authorities and is doing everything to help the victims of Kahadio’s scams.

The police have arrested Kahadio twice for two different cases of fraud and scams.

The artist was involved with a criminal organization whose members would disguise themselves as government officials and demand money from unsuspecting citizens.

Earlier this year, Kahadio had scammed an old lady of 2.3 Million Yen, which is roughly around US$ 21,000. He was arrested in March.

Kahadio was again found guilty in a separate scam involving ATMs and was arrested in April. ALI was set to perform the opening theme song of “The World Ends With You” anime, but the decision was changed due to Kahadio’s arrest.

The band’s decision to go on an indefinite hiatus has upset many fans. But we must understand that the members need some time to regroup and get away from these controversies.

We hope that the band members find a way to cope with the situation and get back on pretty soon! The fans and followers of ALI stand together in these difficult times!
