Rapper who woke up one day and found $750,000 wrongly deposited in his bank account is JAILED after spending the money on gold bars, clothes and make up
A rapper has been sentenced to 18 months jail for spending over $700,000 in cash that was accidentally deposited into his bank account.
Abdel Ghadia, 24, splashed out on bars of gold bullion, clothes, foreign exchange and, oddly, make-up, and will be eligible for parole in October 2023.

According to his social media profiles, Ghadia has released albums and performed at several venues.
A book about independent rappers published in 2018 described Ghadia as a humble young man who had a great future in music as both an artist and a writer and vowed at the time to continue supporting his music journey.
‘He has taken the obstacles of life and put them into one frame which represents his years growing in south-west Sydney,’ it stated.
‘Through his cataloge (sic) of music, people will understand him as a person and what he strives for.
‘Whether he is in the front of the mic or behinds the scenes as a writer for others, either way, he will be great.’
