Chris Brown handed suspended eight-month sentence over 20-second Mayfair bottle attack

Highlights

  • Chris Brown, 37, was sentenced at Southwark Crown Court to eight months in prison, suspended for 12 months, for his part in an attack at the Tape nightclub in Mayfair in February 2023
  • Judge Tony Baumgartner said the repeated use of a glass bottle aimed at the head was "plainly dangerous", but that it was not planned violence
  • Brown's co-defendant, Omololu Akinlolu, was given a four-month sentence, suspended for 12 months
  • Both men pleaded guilty to affray in July, and the sentencing fell on the day their trial had been due to begin

Chris Brown has avoided prison for hitting a music producer with a tequila bottle in a London nightclub, after a judge accepted that the attack was brief, unplanned and unlikely to be repeated.

Brown arrived at Southwark Crown Court on Monday wearing a facemask and sunglasses, and signed autographs for fans as he left. The attack on Abraham "Abe" Diaw, a former friend, took place on 19 February 2023, during Brown's last UK tour.
