Harvey Weinstein has been pictured wearing an electronic ankle bracelet for the first time since being charged with several counts of sexual misconduct.
The disgraced Hollywood movie producer was seen dropping off his children to his estranged wife, Georgina Chapman.
In the photos, an ankle bracelet used by the authorities for tracking defendants is clearly visible on Weinsteins right leg as he climbs out of his vehicle.
Until now, Weinstein had not been pictured wearing the device which came after he was charged with sexually assaulting three women, including one count of first degree rape.
In May, Weinstein posted $1 million (£771,800) bail on the condition that he surrendered his passport, restricted his travel to New York and Connecticut and be fitted with the ankle bracelet.

The filmmaker was seen handing over his eight-year-old daughter India Pearl, and son Dashiell, five, whom he shares with Chapman, at the Fairfield County Hunt Club in Westport, Connecticut.
It also marked the first time Weinstein and Chapman, 42, have been seen together since October 2017 when the sexual misconduct claims against the producer emerged. However, the estranged couple reportedly did not interact during the exchange of their children.
After visiting an ice cream store with their father, India and Dashiell are then said to have spent the rest of the afternoon riding with their mother at the hunt club.
Chapman, co-founder of fashion label Marchesa, has remained mostly out of the spotlight in the past year but did address the Weinstein controversy in a candid interview in May.
Speaking to Vogue, Chapman said: I have moments of rage, I have moments of confusion, I have moments of disbelief! And I have moments when I just cry for my children. What are their lives going to be? What are people going to say to them? Its like, they love their dad. They love him.
Weinstein is currently awaiting trial in New York and is set to next appear in court for a hearing on 20 September.
