		</div><p>A US federal judge gave the green light to move jailed R&;B singer R Kelly to New York City to go on trial this summer after several delays.</p>
<p>Kelly has been held in Chicago, where he is facing a potential second trial in the autumn in a separate federal case related to a sprawling sex crimes investigation.</p>
<p>The trial in Brooklyn federal court had been put off because of the pandemic.</p>
<p><!--Ads1--></p>
<p>But at a virtual hearing, US District Judge Ann Donnelly told lawyers that there are courthouse protections in place that would allow it to finally go forward on August 9.</p>
<p>The judge also said the government should start preparations to move Kelly to a New York jail, most likely the Metropolitan Detention Centre in Brooklyn.</p>

<p>The exact timing was unclear.</p>
<p>Prosecutors in Brooklyn allege Kelly led an enterprise made up of his managers, bodyguards and other employees who helped him recruit women and girls for sex.</p>
<p>A jury is expected to hear evidence from alleged victims, each identified in court papers only as “Jane Doe”.</p>
<p>Kelly has denied the sex trafficking allegations.</p>
<p>One of his lawyers, Steve Greenberg, said that his client is looking forward to the trial.</p>
