Justin Bieber can be seen urinating into a cup in a video just released by the Miami Beach Police Department.

The footage was made public after Judge William Altfield ruled earlier this week that the images were a part of public record as it depicts the star undergoing a drug test following his arrest for a DUI on January 23.

In the clip Bieber can be seen undergoing the drug test as he stands at a urinal while a police officer is nearby observing him urinate into a sanitary container.

The freshly turned 20-year-old stands at the receptacle for nearly a minute before he places the container atop the urinal as he appears to affix a lid onto it.

Bieber then appears to ask the officer a question as he leans over the small partition that is low enough to allow both the camera and the officer to observe the drug test, to ensure there is no foul play.

Earlier in the video the black box - which Miami Police edited in - appears before Bieber positions himself in front of the urinal.

The early appearance of the black bar seems to confirm claims made by TMZ that officers had complained of encountering some difficulties in censoring the footage.

The release of the footage comes after Judge William Altfield said two of the five unreleased video clips depict the singer's genitalia during a urine test for drugs at the Miami Beach Police Department.

Altfield agreed with lawyers for Bieber, who turned 20 on Saturday, that the video's airing would be an invasion of privacy that outweighed the public's right to know.

'Mr. Bieber's right to privacy is paramount,' the judge said. 'He has not lost his right to privacy, and that is what is important here.'

Attorneys for The Associated Press and other news outlets had previously suggested any sensitive portions be blacked out and the rest released under Florida's liberal open records laws.

Much of the footage was released last week, some of it showing Bieber walking unsteadily during a sobriety test.

Bieber has pleaded not guilty to charges of driving under the influence, resisting arrest and driving with an expired license.

He and R&B singer Khalil Amir Sharieff were arrested early on January 23 during what police called an illegal street drag race between a Lamborghini and a Ferrari.

Neither has been charged with drag racing.

Bieber attorney Roy Black said he was satisfied with the ruling, as did media attorneys.

AP attorney Deanna Shullman said the news organization would never show Bieber's private parts and Scott Ponce, representing The Miami Herald and CBS television stations, said the ruling was more about protecting the singer from random releases on the Internet.

'It's more about what someone in the private sector might do,' Ponce said.

Black said the three clips to be released without redaction are shot from an angle that is too far away to discern what is going on.

Prosecutors said they will release all five remaining clips in a few days, after the court-ordered redactions are completed.

Additionally, a video showing the Baby singer led by a guard while in jail to undergo his urine drug test has also been released.

Separately, the Miami Beach Police Department made public a new batch of 18 still photos taken shortly after Bieber's arrest, mainly close-ups of his many tattoos - a praying Jesus, a grinning joker's face accompanied by the word 'love,' an Indian chief's head, a Psalms quotation, and more - and one full-length picture of the singer.

Evidence released previously showed that a breath test found Bieber's blood-alcohol level below the .02 threshold considered intoxicated for underage drivers.

The urine test found the presence of the active ingredient in marijuana and the antianxiety drug Xanax. Bieber told officers he had been smoking marijuana before his arrest, according to police reports.

A trial date has not been set. Altfield set another status conference for next week in the case.

Miami deposition: Bieber is being sued by photographer in assault and theft case

Bieber is also entangled in another legal battle as he is being sued for battery by Miami photographer Jeffrey Binion.

The snapper claims one of Bieber's bodyguards 'choked him and stole his camera equipement' according to TMZ.

Binion's suit claims that the singer masterminded the attack last June outside of a recording studio in Miami.

The pop star has already been deposed in the case and the hearing promises to be quite extensive as it will also question Bieber about his most recent encounter in Atlanta with another photographer whose camera was allegedly stolen by an entourage member.

This is not necessary to see. I don't agree it is of any value beyond exploitation. I think the information that a drug test was performed is enough information. I also don't understand why mug shots of anyone are made public record BEFORE a trial. Innocent until proven guilty. A new trend via Internet is capturing these photos and holding them ransom on a site until someone pays hundreds if not thousands to have them removed. It all stems from "public record"..benefiting whom?
