A woman who has accused Russell Brand of sexual offences said she was left "bewildered and confused" by an alleged assault, according to her account as the allegations progress through the legal process. The claims are among several that have been made against the 51-year-old entertainer.
Brand faces three counts of rape, three counts of sexual assault and one count of indecent assault. All of the charges have been denied by the accused, who has publicly rejected the allegations.
The complainant's description has been set against the broader list of charges now before the courts. Prosecutors say the counts relate to separate incidents; Brand's defence team has disputed the accusations and argued he is not guilty of the alleged offences.
Brand is a well-known public figure in entertainment, and the case has attracted significant media attention. The proceedings remain ongoing and further hearings are expected as the matter moves through the judicial system.
