Jermaine Jackson, pop iconMichael Jackson's elder brother has been stranded in BurkinaFaso, Africa, after his passport ran out while there.
The 56-year-old singer who had visited India in 2009and recorded the pop single Let's Go To Mumbai with AdnanSami, will not be able to get out of Africa any time soonbecause his current legal woes means he may not be able to geta new passport, reported Daily Mail online.
Jermaine owes thousands of dollars in back childsupport and until he pays up, he won't be issued a newpassport.
The mother of two of Jermaine's children got a childsupport order back in May 2008, which required him to pay her$3,000 a month.
The former Jackson 5 singer went into arrears almostfrom the start and now owes Alejandra Oaziaza, $91,921.
California law states that if a person owes more than$2,500 in back child support the State Department of ChildSupport Services automatically informs the FBI.
The delinquent parent's passport is then flagged andonce it expires, it can't be renewed until the person catchesup on their payments.
As Jermaine's passport expired during his trip, hewill not be able to fly home until he pays the amount in full,unless the American Embassy helps him out and issues him atemporary passport so he can return to America.
Jermaine married Alejandra in 1995 and have twochildren together, Jaafar, 14, and Jermajesty, 10.
