She is also barred from being in the company of anyone under the age of 18 years old unless the child is in the company of a carer.

Under the strict bail conditions, the 30-year-old must report to police every day and comply with an overnight curfew.

Mr Abdul-Karol also ordered her not to access social media and told her she is only allowed to have one phone, to which police must be given access.
