It was granted in relation to aggressive and abusive behaviour which intimidated communities.

The court order was made in 2016 and runs until next year.

It prevents Berkley interacting with four named people and trying to disguise his identity with a hood when in public.

Berkley was released from prison in September after serving a sentence for burglary and theft offences.
