Controversial dancehall DeeJay, Bounty Killer, will return to court today.

Bounty Killer, whose real name is Rodney Pryce, is charged for beating up his girlfriend and threatening her life in the presence of police.

He last appeared before Senior Magistrate Judith Pusey, in the Corporate Area Resident Magistrate's Court last Wednesday and was remanded after the judge informed him that he committed the acts while out on bail for illegal possession of a firearm and unlawful wounding.

Police told the court that supporters of the controversial DJ had been intimidating the complainant to drop the charges.

The woman has reportedly told police that she wants to drop the case but was warned by the magistrate not to waste the court's time.

His attorneys are expected to file another bail application this morning.

Bounty Killer is one of several local artistes whose visas have been revoked by the United States embassy.

Pryce's is also known as 'The Warlord' and has had constant brushes with the law including a bust up with an off duty cop in New Kingston in 2007.

He has also appeared before the same court after he assaulted a woman along Constant Spring Road.
