Ask the State Department to help free Pat Alloco and his son
We ask that the US State Department exercise it's full legal authority to assist in the immediate release and safe return of father and son, Pat and Patrick Alloco to the United States.
Why is this important?
American concert promoter, Patrick Allocco, and his son were kidnapped at gunpoint in Angola after their client, rapper Nas, failed to show up at a New Year’s Eve performance there.
Nas was paid $300,000 in advance for the conference. The Angolan promoter allegedly kidnapped the Allocos, demanding repayment of the advance. The men were later released but their passports were being held and they are unable to leave the country. Nas has paid back some of the money but refuses to pay the remaining $100,000.
January 11th, Alloco alerted his Facebook friends that he was being arrested, the State Department has not been able to confirm this report.
