Kartel conspiracy trial begins today
The conspiracy trial of embattled dancehall entertainer Vybz Kartel is expected to get underway in the Corporate Area Resident Magistrate’s Court today.
Kartel, whose real name is Adidja Palmer, is facing the charge of perverting the course of justice.
He is jointly charged with his associate Andre Henry alias ‘Pim Pim’ and fellow entertainer Vanessa Saddler, more popularly known as 'Gaza Slim'.
Henry and Saddler are out on bail, while Kartel remains in police custody.
It is being alleged that Kartel and his co-accused were a part of a plot to undermine a police investigation into the murder of Clive 'Lizard' Williams.
Kartel and four other men are before the Home Circuit Court, on a charge of murder in relation to the death of Williams.
