Popcaan Assault Trial Set For June 5

Earlier this week Urban Islandz reported that Popcaan was slapped with assault charges after an alleged incident involving a police officer.

Now we’ve learned that Popcaan, born Andre Sutherland, will go on trial on June 5 in the Corporate Area Resident Magistrate’s Court. But given the reputation of the Jamaican justice system, the trial will probably be delayed and drawn out.

According to police report, the alleged incident took placed last year after the dancehall deejay arrived at the Norman Manley International Airport in Kingston.
