Controversial reggae star Buju Banton's lawyers David Markus Marc and David Seitles claim that the US Government set the Rasta Got Soul artiste up with the help of paid informant.

Busy Radio.Com gets to understand on Tuesday January 26), documents filed by Buju's all-star defense attorneys David Markus and David Seitles stated that Buju was entrapped by the government after he was pressured to purchase the cocaine.

According to allhiphop.com Markus is pushing to have the informants identity revealed, because his credibility or lack thereof could send Buju Banton for the rest of his life.

The singer allegedly met the informant on a flight from Madrid, Spain to Miami, Florida, in July of 2009.

The informant allegedly spent the next three months trying to purchase the cocaine.

“In addition to refusing to disclose the identity, the government has refused to identify the prior cases in which he has been involved, the outcomes of those cases, the amount of money he has earned making cases for the government, or even the amount he has been paid (or expects to be paid) in this case," the court papers read.

Buju Banton, born Mark Myrie, was arrested on December 10 and charged with conspiring to buy more than five kilograms of cocaine from an undercover law enforcement officer, and possession of a firearm during the course of illegal activity.
