His statement continued in the caption: “NNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEVVVVVVVVVVEEEEEERRRRRR!!!!!! FOR MY DAUGHTER AND MY FAMILY THIS IS SO DISPRESPECTFUL [sic] AND IS AGAINST MY CHARACTER AND MORALS!!!!!”
The alleged rape is said to have occurred in Brown’s room at the Mandarin Oriental, which is a luxury hotel near Place Vendôme. The woman additionally claimed that Brown’s friend and his bodyguard also abused her.
Brown’s latest arrest follows a long string of run-ins with the law.
In 2009, Brown was sentenced to five years probation and 180 days of community labor afterpleading guilty to felony assaultfor beating then-girlfriendRihanna. Seven years later, he was arrestedon suspicionof assault with a deadly weapon (charges were never filed), and in 2017, his ex-girlfriend Karreuche Tran wasgranted a restraining order against him.
Then in May, an unidentified womanfiled a lawsuitagainst Brown and two others after she said she was allegedly held down and sexually assaulted in the singer’s home.
The woman claimed Brown held a party in his home on Feb. 23, 2017, in which his friend, Lowell Grissom Jr., also known as Young Lo, and an unnamed woman, “Doe X,” forcibly held her down and forced her to perform sexual acts.
She sued the trio for sexual battery, battery, assault and intentional infliction of emotional distress among other charges. Brown’s lawyerMark Geragos told TMZat the time, “None of these allegations are true. Nobody has done anything with this… there’s no case here. Chris is a target.”
Chris Brown’s reps have not responded to PEOPLE’s previous request for comment.
