DANCEHALL artiste Gaza Slim has been charged by police with conspiracy to pervert the court of justice.

Gaza Slim, whose real name is Vanessa Saddler, turned herself in to the Constant Spring Police on Monday after being named as a person of interest.

She placed herself under the microscope after reporting to cops that she was robbed by Clive Lizard Williams, the same man her Portmore Empire boss Vybz Kartel is charged for murdering. Police say they have seized a cellular phone which contains a message instructing her to concoct the story that she was robbed.

It is expected that she will spend the weekend behind bars.
