Russell Brand Is facing more allegations of rape, after he was convicted of the crime and three other sexual assaults by a court in London.

The comedian and actor has been spending his first night in jail, after the judge told him he would be facing a “significant” prison sentence.

Brand had faced seven charges: three of rape, three of sexual assault and one of attempted indecent assault. He was found not guilty on three counts. The seven charges dated from 1999 to 2009 and involved six women.

Following the verdicts, it was revealed that Brand is currently being investigated over other rape allegations made by two women. The Metropolitan Police said: “The suspect has been interviewed under caution in connection with the allegations” and files had been submitted to the Crown Prosecution Service.
