UK rapper Yung Filly escorted in handcuffs through airport after facing rape charges in Australia

Footage shows Yung Filly being escorted by authorities after his arrest in Perth Australia.

British YouTuber and rapper Yung Filly, whose real name is Andres Felipe Valencia Barrientos, has been extradited from Queensland to Perth after being charged with multiple serious sexual assault offenses.

The 29-year-old is accused of sexually assaulting a woman in her 20s in a hotel room following his performance at Bar1 Nightclub in Hillarys, Perth, on September 28.

Footage shows the rapper being escorted through an airport in handcuffs by two officials as he was transferred to Perth for a court hearing.

Barrientos faces charges that include four counts of sexual penetration without consent, three counts of assault occasioning bodily harm, and one count of impeding a person’s normal breathing by applying pressure to their neck.

He appeared at Perth Magistrates Court, where his bail hearing was adjourned. The accusations remain unproven, and Barrientos is presumed innocent until proven guilty.
