Asafa Powell & Amita Child Maintenance Case Gets Gag Order

Former 100 metres world record holder Asafa Powell appeared before the Kingston and St Andrew Family Court in Kingston on Thursday, July 30 over child support payments.

Asafa Powell’s ex-girlfriend Amita Persaud-Webb, is seeking $40,000 per month in child maintenance for their seven-year-old daughter, the Gleaner reports. Amita’s new request is an increase on the $25,000 per month arrangement that was previously in place.

In response, the Sub10-King through his attorney, Annaliesa Lindsay, asked the court to issue an order for a paternity test.

The court placed a gag order on Asafa Powell and Amita Persaud-Webb. This means, Powell and Persaud-Webb are legally forbidden to speak publicly on the case.

The two are set to return to court on October 9.
