American R&B star Chris Brown has been granted bail by a UK court in connection with an assault case, on the condition that he posts a £5 million bond.
The 36-year-old singer, known for his past relationship with pop icon Rihanna, was released on Wednesday under strict bail conditions. The court ruled that Brown may proceed with his international tour, which is set to begin on June 8 in Amsterdam.
However, the judge warned that if Brown fails to return to the UK, where he is scheduled to perform a series of concerts starting June 15, the £5 million bail will be forfeited.
The case has drawn significant public attention given Brown’s high profile and past legal controversies. While the court’s decision allows him to fulfill his international tour commitments, it also underscores the seriousness of the charges he faces. All eyes will now be on his return to the UK, where both legal and professional obligations await.
