Pet Monkey Seized From Pop Star Justin Bieber At Airport


 A monkey has been seized from pop star Justin Bieber after he flew it into Munich from the US on a private plane.
The pet, a capuchin called Mally, is thought to have been given to the singer for his 19th birthday on March 1 by music producer Jamal Rashid.

Earlier this week Rashid, also known as Mally Mall, uploaded a picture of Bieber and Mally to his Instagram feed with the caption: "OG MALLY FIRST PIC WITH HIS POPS @JUSTINBIEBER."
Bieber took Mally on a Cessna Citation X he rents for £13,000-a-time from LA to Munich's Franz Josef Strauss Airport on Thursday, The Sun reported, ahead of his gig at the city's Olympiahalle.
The Canadian star was detained "for some time" while customs officials took Mally into quarantine at the airport.
The singer faces a fine of more than £10,000 and will have to pay for the animal's care.
A customs spokesman confirmed to Sky News that Justin Beiber tried to bring his monkey into Germany without the correct papers on Thursday.
The monkey is currently being held in quarantine until the singer produces the correct paperwork.
On Monday, Bieber, who has been touring for months, had flown from Poland to Los Angeles and caused a stir at Lodz airport by stripping off his shirt as he walked through security.
The star has hit the headlines several times in recent weeks.

Police were called during the singer's brief return to his house in Calabasas, California, on Tuesday.
Los Angeles County Sheriff's spokesman Steve Whitmore said a neighbour claimed that he had been threatened and struck by Bieber.
A police report alleging battery and threats by the singer had been filed and was being investigated, Mr Whitmore said. No charges have been filed.
Earlier in the month Bieber and his entourage were asked to leave the Hotel Le Meurice in Paris apparently because of the "nuisance caused by the presence of his fans around the buildings".
And before that Bieber, who has 36 million Twitter followers, was forced to apologise to fans in London after arriving late on stage.
Many young fans left the capital's O2 Arena without seeing their idol, sparking anger among both the devotees and their parents.
He also collapsed on-stage at another UK concert and received oxygen before staying overnight in hospital.
He later cancelled a concert in Portugal, saying he had had a "rough week" in London.
