Chris Brown can return to US after bail conditions changed
A £5 million security fee remains to ensure Chris Brown returns for trial after alleged assault at a London nightclub in 2023, court documents show.
- Judge Tony Baumgartner granted a change to bail conditions at Southwark Crown Court on October 28, allowing Chris Brown to return to the United States while he awaits trial, with stringent terms in place.
- On February 19, 2023, at the Tape private members' club in Hanover Square, Mayfair, Brown and co-defendant Omololu Akinlolu denied assault after prosecutors said Abraham Diaw was struck with a bottle, punched, and kicked.
- A 5 million security fee remains in force, with Heidi Stonecliffe KC saying the bail conditions remain 'very stringent' and 'numerous' in court.
- Granting permission, Judge Baumgartner said `You will have to come back to the United Kingdom when you are required to do so` and warned missing court could jeopardise the securities; the defendants will next appear on January 28.
- Brown was arrested at the Lowry Hotel on May 15 and a week later, on May 21, the court heard he was released from HMP Forest Bank, Salford, while he publicly thanked the Manchester prison and made peace signs.
