Abu Dhabi, Dec 1: The General Entertainment Authority celebrated the 46th National Day of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) by organizing the first female concert in Saudi Arabia hosting renowned GCC artist, Balqees.

The concert, held Wednesday at the Hilton in Jeddah, was attended by about 2,000 of Balqees’s female fans who enjoyed her spectacular performance. Balqees belted out a wide range of her hit songs, in addition to the UAE national anthem.

The audience expressed their gratitude and delight with these unique concerts that are taking place for the first time in Saudi Arabia. They also praised GEA’s efforts in organizing such amazing events and concerts, which are taking the entertainment industry in the Kingdom to a whole new level and strengthening the Kingdom’s position on the global entertainment map.

Balqees is a Yemeni singer. She came from an artistic family as her father Ahmed Fathi was a well-known Yemeni musician and her mother is from United Arab Emirates. She began early in music learning to play instruments and singing.

Saudi Arabia has been taking its entertainment program very seriously ... and it looks like December is going to be one busy month for the Kingdom.

The GEA announced that American rapper Nelly and Algerian singer Cheb Khaled are scheduled to perform in Jeddah on Dec. 14, in what is being described as the largest concert to date.

The entertainment authority partnered with MBC Action to make this event a reality for music fans in the kingdom ... male fans to be more specific.

“For the first time in the history of the Kingdom, international music stars will perform,” the announcement read.

Mumbai,  Aug 7: Unless Maharashtra Government consents to CBI investigation in the Sushant Singh Rajput's death case, it would be illegal, affecting the federal structure of the country, said actor Rhea Chakraborty's lawyer.

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has registered and continued the illegality which was perpetrated at the hands of Bihar Police in connection with the case, he added.

"The Bihar Government transferred a case with which it had no jurisdiction to investigate, to CBI instead of the Mumbai Police which is the legal position. The Supreme Court is seized of the issue pursuant to the transfer petition filed by Rhea Chakraborty," said Satish Maneshinde Chakraborty's lawyer.

The Supreme Court has directed all parties to file their replies and Mumbai Police is directed to place the report of investigations, he added.

"Pending the said proceedings the CBI has registered and continued the illegality which was perpetrated at the hands of Bihar Police.

CBI being a premier investigative agency in the country should desist from taking any further steps pending the SC proceedings. Apart from the same unless the Maharashtra Government consents to CBI investigating the case ... it would be totally illegal and beyond any known legal principles, affecting the Federal Structure of the Nation," said Maneshinde.

The Special Investigation Team (SIT) of the CBI that is probing high profile cases of Vijay Mallya and AgustaWestland cases will now investigate the Sushant Singh Rajput's death case.

The investigating agency has registered a case against six accused including Bollywood actor Rhea Chakraborty and others in connection with the Rajput's death.

The sources in CBI said that six accused in the case will be summoned soon for questioning and other persons will also be called for examining which was earlier examined by Mumbai police.

Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar had earlier sent a recommendation to the Central Government for CBI investigation in the case filed in Patna based on the complaint of Sushant's father KK Singh against Rhea Chakraborty under sections including abetment of suicide on July 25.

Sushant was found dead at his Mumbai residence on June 14.

Days after Rajput's death, Rhea Chakraborty said she was the "girlfriend" of the 'Dil Bechara' actor while requesting a CBI inquiry in the case.

Chakraborty has also approached the Supreme Court for transfer of investigation to Mumbai in the FIR registered against her in Patna.
