British YouTube content creator Yung Filly, who’s facing trial in Perth on sex assault charges, has been granted permission to travel home to the UK for the first time since he was arrested.<\/p>\n
The entertainer, whose real name is Andres Felipe Valencia Barrientos, allegedly raped a woman in his Perth hotel room after a performance at a nightclub in the city’s north in September last year.<\/p>\n
He was arrested in Brisbane before being extradited to Perth in October, where he has stayed since as part of his strict bail conditions.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But District Court Judge Gary William Massey has allowed an amendment to the bail conditions, clearing Mr Barrientos to travel home to the UK on Tuesday for almost four months.<\/p>\n

He has pleaded not guilty to charges of sexual penetration without consent and assault causing bodily harm.<\/p>\n
The District Court heard there will be a $100,000 surety, separate to Mr Barrientos’ $100,000 personal undertaking and his electronic devices must have location services switched on at all times while overseas.<\/p>\n

In court Mr Barrientos smiled when confirming his name and told Judge Massey he understood the conditions and thanked him.<\/p>\n
When entering the District Court, the entertainer took a picture with two fans.<\/p>\n
He made no comment as he left court and got into a van that was waiting for him.<\/p>\n
