Yet, fortunately, everything went well, and our beloved DJ got back to the stage months later. He asks one thing about this;
“I ask only one thing if it is possible, a little respect for my father and my family, since neither I nor any of you have the power and the duty to judge what happened.

I forgive my father for the crazy gesture and I pray so much for him. Now I think about healing. See you soon.“
