## Summary

Russell Brand’s second week of trial at Southwark Crown Court included evidence from four women, with allegations spanning incidents at a bar, a radio station and Brand’s London home. The testimony adds detail to the case, while Brand denies all charges.

The 51-year-old faces seven counts relating to alleged offences against six women between 1999 and 2009: three counts of rape, three of sexual assault and one of indecent assault. In cross-examination, defence barrister Ian Winter KC challenged accounts from two complainants; friends and family of one woman said she was extremely distressed after an alleged 2009 incident. The defence is due to open next week.
