A charity dental practice in the Bahamas, partly ran by Lenny Kravitz, was reportedly shut down by police and immigration officers, due to incorrect documentation.

The practice in Gregory Town, Eleuthera, which is run, in part, by Kravitz’s Let Love Rule foundation and the GLO Good Foundation, was established recently to provide local residents with oral health care for four days for free, reports the local outlet the Eleutheran.

However, on the last day of the clinic, police and immigration officials raided and instructed doctors to pack up and leave while some patients were reportedly mid-way through procedures.

A police report, quoted by the Eleutheran, appeared to indicate that Mr Kravitz was at the premises when officials visited.

“Sometime around 1.33pm on Saturday 12/12/15 the police received a report that there was a group of persons operating an illegal clinic at the Catholic Hall in Gregory Town. As a result officers visited the location along with immigration officers.

“While there they spoke with Mr Lenny Kravitz who reported that he was hosting the free clinic through his Let Love Rule foundation in conjunction with the GLO Good Foundation.

“Mr Kravitz was not able to produce documentation authorising the event, as a result he was informed that he was in breach of the Immigration and Public Health Acts and was instructed to cease all operations until proper authorisation was obtained.”

Kravitz owns a recording studio and property on the Bahamian island. He reportedly wrote Fly Away while driving his jeep along the beach on the island.

The Eleutheran reports that Kravitz has “silently” long contributed to many charitable causes and initiatives on the island.

The paper reports that, following the incident, officers apologised and it is believed the clinic will return in the new year.

A spokesperson for Kravitz has been contacted by the Independent for comment.
