US rapper Freddie Gibbs, who is charged with the sexual abuse of a female fan in Austria, was released on bail from a Vienna prison on Thursday, court officials said.
The 34-year-old from Gary, Indiana, left the
Wien-Josefstadt jail after paying 50,000 euros ($57,000) and
surrendering his passport, court spokeswoman Christina Salzborn said.
He has been barred from leaving the country while the case is still open, she said.
Gibbs, whose real name is Fredrick Tipton, was extradited
in late July from France where police arrested him on a European arrest
warrant shortly before a planned gig in the southwestern city of
Toulouse.
The American is accused of drugging two girls — aged 16
and 17 at the time — after a concert in Vienna on July 6, 2015, and
taking them back to his hotel where he is said to have abused one of the
women.Punch
