Chris Brown, the 36-year-old R&B singer, has been granted bail by a London court after being charged with serious assault.

The allegations stem from an incident in 2023, where the singer was accused of inflicting grievous bodily harm on music producer Abraham Diaw with a tequila bottle in a London nightclub.

According to reports by People Magazine, Brown was arrested at a hotel in Manchester about a week ago, after returning to the UK for the first time since the incident.

@originalmrscheetah:
“It’s concerning to me that there are more people in the comments complaining about the “excessively high bail” amount, as opposed to Chris’s continued violent behaviour… And stop saying it wasn’t proven, this incident was on video, and quite frankly, he’s lucky he wasn’t charged with attempted M! He knocked that man unconscious with a glass bottle, hitting him in the right spot could’ve caused permanent damage or unalived him.. “Fans”, do better smh.”

@lazubrenda3620:
“About time he is released… And all they want is money, but he doesn’t care about that, he is all about his kids, family and making his fans happy. We love you 🥰 Breezy and may god protect you always!!!”

@nairobi2013:
“6.7 million for BAIL on an assault charge is crazy especially when he is innocent until PROVEN guilty and I’m not on his side at all but the judge is taking this a bit personal if you ask me.”
