Ace Bollywood singer Mika Singh who recently visited Dubai for a private performance was arrested following a sexual misconduct case over a 17-year old Brazillian model. Mika was taken in Muraqqabaat police custody as soon as a teenaged girl reported the case to police. Although after the intervention of the Indian Embassy, Mika Singh is now released.

ANI reported "Navdeep Singh Suri, Indian Ambassador to UAE, on singer Mika Singh detained in UAE after a girl complained against him for alleged harassment: Following efforts by the embassy, singer Mika was released at 1130 last night. He will be produced before a court today."

As soon as the news was out, it was reported,"Our team is at the police station. We are working on it: Navdeep Singh Suri, Indian Ambassador to United Arab Emirates, on singer Mika Singh detained in UAE after a girl complained against him for alleged harassment."

As per sources, the singer was detained at 3 am last night from Bur Dubai. Mika had gone to Dubai to perform at a Bollywood event. Earlier this week, the 'Aaj Ki Party' singer took to his Instagram account to share a video from Dubai, "Hey Dubai.. I'm in your city and it’s the 1st time I'm here to attend the most popular awards the Masala Awards. See you tonight!"

He was also snapped with American singer Akon in the event. This is not the first time that the singer has faced charges of inappropriate behaviour. He was accused of forcibly kissing the Bollywood's controversial actor Rakhi Sawant and was involved in a fight with an audience member during a show.
