BEENIE MAN RELEASED ON BAIL
Reggae star BEENIE MAN has been freed on bail by a judge in his native Jamaica after appearing in court on charges of tax evasion.
An arrest warrant was issued for Beenie Man - real name Anthony Moses Davis last week (24Oct07) after he failed to attend court to answer the charges.
The Dude hitmaker owes the Jamaican revenue department $415,000 (£207,500) and a further $246,000 (£123,000) in penalties. He claims he was unaware he owed the money, and blamed his business managers for the slip-up. But after turning up to his latest court hearing on Monday (29Oct07), a judge decided to release the 34-year-old on $21,100 (£10,550) bail.
He is due back in court on 3 December (07).
