(CelebrityAccess) Late bassist for Asia John Wetton was robbed by a bandmate of another band, according to a lawsuit.

Wetton joined a band called UKZ with rocker Eddie Jobson late in his career and the band never paid him for 11 shows in 2015, according to the lawsuit. Wetton’s estate is suiting for $45,5000 in Manhattan Supreme Court, according to the New York Post.

“Jobson used his complete control over UKZ INc. to unjustly obtain services from Wetton, when he had no intention of paying Wetton,” the suit reportedly says.

Asia was famous for the hit “Heat of the Moment.” Wetton died in 2017.
