More women come forward to accuse UK comedian Russell Brand of r@pe, s3xual assault and emotional abuse

More women have come forward with allegations after British comedian and actor, Russell Brand was hit with accusations of rape, sexual assault, and emotional abuse.   The Times and Sunday Times claim 'several women' have come forward with undisclosed allegations about Brand's behaviour during the early 2000s in the wake of their joint investigation with Channel 4 which was published on Saturday. The latest allegations which the newspaper says have not been investigated follow accusations from four women, including one who claims she was sexually assaulted by Brand during a three-month relationship with him when she was 16 and still at school.  The BBC is now also facing 'urgent questions' after it was claimed that Brand, 48, used his company-provided car service to pick the girl up from school. It comes as both BBC and Channel 4 have launched internal investigations into separate accusations of predatory behaviour by Brand towards staff and audience members during the time of his employment.  Channel 4 has since removed all programmes linked to Brand from its website, including episodes of The Great British Bake Off and Big Brother's Big Mouth in which he was featured, The Daily Telegraph reported. Netflix has since been urged to remove his comedy special, titled Re:Birth, from its streaming catalogue. The maverick actor and stand-up comic has strenuously denied any wrongdoing and blamed the mainstream media for the litany of astonishing rather baroque attacks.   The post More women come forward to accuse UK comedian Russell Brand of r@pe, s3xual assault and emotional abuse appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
