An Argentine judge summoned pop singer Justin Bieber for questioning over an alleged incident at a discotheque in this capital last year, when the Canadian performer was on tour here, court officials said.

Judge Facundo Cubas issued an order to the Interpol department within the Argentine Federal Police to locate the artist and one of his bodyguards and notify them that they must appear in court to give statements.

According to court sources cited by the official Telam news agency, the judge warned that if Bieber does not show up to testify within 60 days after being notified, he will order his arrest.

Bieber, 20, and one of his bodyguards were cited in incidents at the Ink disco in the Buenos Aires neighborhood of Palermo on Nov. 9, 2013, where the singer and his friends were partying.

Among other things, the pair are accused of allegedly attacking a photographer and stealing his camera and then leaving the disco without paying their tab.

Argentine photographer Diego Pesoa claims Bieber’s bodyguards chased him and beat him up outside the nightspot.

Bieber could spend up to a year in prison if convicted of causing minor injuries to the man.

According to the summons, the singer had ordered his bodyguards to prevent him from being photographed when he left the establishment.

The judge’s ruling asks Interpol to locate the artist and his bodyguard at their homes, at the site of a scheduled event or anywhere else and present the summons to them.
