Chris Brown's Legal Drama: Grammy Star Defends Innocence
Chris Brown pleaded not guilty to attacking a music producer two years ago in a London nightclub. Charged with grievous bodily harm for allegedly using a tequila bottle on Abraham Diaw, Brown and co-defendant Omolulu Akinlolu deny the accusations. The trial is set to begin in October 2026.
Grammy Award-winning singer Chris Brown has pleaded not guilty to charges of attacking a music producer with a tequila bottle in a London nightclub incident that reportedly occurred two years ago. The 36-year-old appeared in Southwark Crown Court this past Friday, with the courtroom packed with supporters eager to show their allegiance.
Brought before the court alongside co-defendant Omolulu Akinlolu, Brown faces serious charges of attempting to inflict grievous bodily harm upon music producer Abraham Diaw. Prosecutors claim the incident was an unprovoked attack. Both Brown and Akinlolu have been granted bail, with a trial scheduled for October 2026.
The charges do not stop there; Brown is also charged with possessing an offensive weapon, identified as a bottle, though he was not required to enter a plea for this offense. Returning to England for the first time since the alleged incident, Brown had been arrested in Manchester but managed to secure a 5 million pound bail to continue his "Breezy Bowl XX" tour.
