'NOT YET, BOUNTY' - Court delays deejay's attempt to get back passport














An obviously disappointed Rodney 'Bounty Killer' Pryce left the Corporate Area Resident Magistrate's Court yesterday, after an application for his passport to be returned was rescheduled.


Pryce's attorney Christopher Townsend made the application for the passport which was taken from the artiste by the police as a condition for his $500,000 bail in an assault case.

However, Resident Magistrate Lorna Shelly Williams rescheduled the matter to be mentioned tomorrow, giving herself enough time to peruse the application for variation of the artiste's bail condition.
The assault case was postponed last month as the complainant, Racquel Smith, did not show up.
The trial will begin on January 11.

Pryce was arrested in September after Smith reported that the artiste used a hammer to beat her in her knees and head. She also told the police that he used an electric insect swatter that resembles a tennis racket to beat her.

On an earlier court date in October, Smith, 19, had communicated through her attorney, Terrence Ballentine, that she wanted the matter to go to mediation, however, RM Lorna Shelly Williams had denied the request.
