Akon Sued For Unpaid Debt

Darpan News Desk IANS, 19 Jan, 2015 11:26 AM
  • Akon Sued For Unpaid Debt
 Singer Akon has been hit with an over $36,000 lawsuit for not paying dues to a contractor after renovations at his Georgia mansion.
 
According to tmz.com, the 41-year-old owes $36,765 to Durable Steel Structures for designing 'a glass floor that makes it seem like walking about a coral reef.'. 
 
The elaborate designs needed LED lights to project the reef images below the glass. 
 
At the time of installation, Akon's mother couldn't make a decision about the lighting and now the company is refusing to finish the job until getting payment.
 
The “Smack that” hitmaker was earlier sued in 2012 for over $50,000 by a different firm for work at the same residence.
