Music executive Chaka Zulu -- the longtime manager of rapper Ludacris and co-founder of his record label -- was charged with murder this week for a June shooting at an Atlanta restaurant that left one person dead, authorities said.
Zulu, whose legal name is Ahmed Obafemi, was one of three men shot, according to the police report. His legal counsel claims Zulu nearly died that night and fired his weapon in self-defence.
Homicide investigators later identified Zulu as a suspect and obtained warrants charging him with murder, aggravated assault, possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime and simple battery, Atlanta Police announced Friday night. "Mr. Zulu was shot in the back during the shooting and nearly lost his life, and is still recovering from the nearly fatal injuries he sustained that evening. Mr. Zulu was at his place of business that night and had every right to defend himself," the statement read in part.
