Popular social media blogger and entertainer Pops YG was granted bail on Friday after nearly two weeks in custody.

It followed a bail application by his attorney Donnovan Collins in the Trelawny Parish Court.

Pops YG, real name Ansel Fairclough, was offered bail in the amount of $500,000 and ordered to surrender his travel documents to the police.

A stop order has been placed on him at the ports and he was ordered not to contact or interfere with the complainant or the complainant’s relatives.

The well-known blogger is to report to the Warsop Police Station in Trelawny every Monday, Wednesday and Friday before 8:00 pm.

He was charged last Monday with having sex with a person under the age of 16 years old.

The well-known blogger is also on pre-charge bail for suspected breaches of the Law Reform (Fraudulent Transactions) (Special Provisions) Act, commonly called the Lottery Scam Law.
