In a court hearing last week R. Kelly tried to get the judge to remove the restrictions on his travel, which was denied. Kelly was forced to hand over his passport back in February after he was charged with 10 counts of felany criminal sexual abuse were three of them were minors. His attempt last week to leave the country was him seeking permission to fly to Dubai for a series of concerts, but since then reports have come in that the Dubai government has denied there was never any plans for R. Kelly concerts.
