Canadian Rapper K’naan Charged with Sexual Assault After Arrest in Quebec City

Canadian rapper K’naan, best known for his 2009 global hit “Wavin’ Flag,” has been charged with sexual assault following his recent arrest in Quebec City. The 47-year-old artist, whose legal name is Keinaan Abdi Warsame, was taken into custody on Monday, as confirmed by a Quebec City police spokesperson.

The sexual assault charge stems from an incident that allegedly occurred between July 16 and 17, 2010, in Quebec City. The preliminary hearing for the case has been scheduled for April 23, 2025.

K’naan, who gained international fame for “Wavin’ Flag,” the anthem that resonated with millions during the 2010 FIFA World Cup, was in Toronto just a day after his arrest to receive the prestigious SOCAN Cultural Impact Award. The award recognizes the lasting influence of his iconic track.
