T.I. and wife Tiny Arrested in Amsterdam

T.I till super chill about his recent bust in Amsterdam ... which he's now calling "a slight kerfuffle" with a dash of "lost in translation." We got the rapper and his wife, Tiny, Wednesday as they returned to the States, flying into LAX. We asked him to shed some light on the run-in with cops in the Netherlands, and he said the whole thing was a slight miscommunication. That checks out, 'cause T.I. says he didn't even realize he was talking to a cop! He says the guy's dialect -- a mix of Dutch and English -- totally threw him off. All good though ... T.I. didn't seem stressed about it then -- he posted video while in custody -- and still doesn't now, saying all's well that ends well. As we reported ... Tip said he was riding a bicycle when his handlebar bro...

Britney says she got distracted by some leftover coffee on a hunt for some face wash before realizing she was locked inside. She says her boyfriend, Sam Asghari, was fast asleep and she had to scream 4 times to wake him up. When Sam's attempts to pick the lock failed, Britney says she was able to call security to come open the door ... but it sounds like they were asleep just like Sam.

Hospital to pay woman Sh2m for testing HIV without her consent

A hospital has been fined Sh2 million for conducting HIV tests on a woman without her consent. The woman had been initially awarded Sh900,000 by a tribunal but Justice Hedwig Ong'udi increased the fine. Ong’udi noted that a test like that of HIV cannot be lumped with other tests and assumed to have been consented to. “There must be counselling and preparation before this test is taken. None of these was undertaken,” Justice Ong'udi said. The woman was an employee at the hospital. She sued her former employer for testing her without consent, without pre-test or post-test counselling and unlawfully disclosing the status causing her so much psychological trauma. She had been awarded Sh900,000 by the HIV-Aids tribunal as compensation for damages. But the court found that...
