Fue liberado de la carce despues de pagar una multa de US$ 6,500 , ahora esta bajo arresto domiciliario y con una deuda de US$ 6,500 en el lugar en donde obtuvo el prestamo su familia para pagar.
Las comunidades de twitter estan recolectando dinero para ayudarle a pagar la deuda.

Como sigue esta historia? espero que ya lo hayan liberado... nadie tiene derecho ser arrestado por esto
