Ninjaman has been transferred from the St Catherine Adult Correctional Centre in Spanish Town to the Horizon Adult Remand Centre, Kingston.
The move comes days after a leaked video of the incarcerated Dancehall superstar went viral on social media.
In the clip which surfaced last month, Ninjaman, whose given name is Desmond Ballentine, can be seen smoking a spliff, while showing off his brand new pair of Clarks to fellow inmates and jokingly telling them he is a modern day bad man.
“A we mek jail look like blood*****t road. Clarks clean like whistle, bottom brand new,” the former Downsound records deejay said as inmates cheered him on, “We a modern badman wid modern badness,” he continued.
