Singer Nicki Minaj was taken into police custody at Amsterdam’s Schiphol Airport after authorities discovered “Illicit drugs” in her possession, according to a spokesperson for the Netherlands border police.

Robert Kapel, a spokesperson for the Royal Netherlands Marechaussee, confirmed the arrest, stating that a 41-year-old American was detained after a search revealed soft drugs, which are illegal to export in the Netherlands.

Although Kapel did not name Nicki Minaj, she went live on Instagram during the encounter, showing Amsterdam police attempting to take her into custody.

In the video, Nicki Minaj claimed that the pre-rolled joints found in her bag belonged to someone else.

She initially refused to go with police, requesting a lawyer be present, but eventually relented and entered a police vehicle.

During her transport, Minaj expressed concern about making her next show, scheduled for Saturday night in Manchester, England, as part of her Pink Friday 2 World Tour.

The officer assured her they would try to get her there as soon as possible.

On Saturday, Minaj provided additional details about the encounter, stating that police claimed to have found marijuana and needed another group to come and weigh the pre-rolled joints.

She stressed that her security team had already advised police that the pre-rolls belonged to them, not her.

Minaj also mentioned that the pilot requested she take down her Instagram post about the incident.
