RnB singer Chris Brown has had his application for bail denied after appearing in court charged over an alleged bottle attack at a London nightclub two years ago.
The American musician, 36, appeared in the dock at Manchester Magistrates’ Court on Friday charged with causing grievous bodily harm to Abraham Diaw in February 2023.
District Judge Joanne Hirst told Brown the alleged offence was a matter “too serious” to be dealt with at her court as she sent the case to London’s Southwark Crown Court for a plea and trial preparation hearing on 13 June.
She refused an application for bail from lawyers for Brown, who was arrested at The Lowry Hotel in Salford at 2am on Thursday by detectives from the Metropolitan Police.
