Brown has been released from police custody and he is not currently facing any charges, according to Paris prosecutor’s office.

Closer Magazine spoke with the French model who accused Brown of sexual assault. In the interview, the woman explains that she met Brown at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel on Jan 15. After a night of partying, the woman says she went back to Brown’s hotel room, where he followed her into the bathroom and, as she states, he then “catches me by the right arm. He makes me enter a sort of dressing room. He closed the door… it lasted 25-30 minutes.”

A source close to Brown said that the victim was never alone with the singer and that Brown’s girlfriend, Ammika Harris, was in the hotel room the whole time with about 20 other people, according to TMZ.

Brown’s attorney, Raphael Chiche, said his client “vigorously protests his innocence,” according to CNN. The singer took to Instagram denying these allegations.

“I wanna make it perfectly clear ….. This is false and a whole lot of CAP!,” he wrote to his followers. “… For my daughter and my family this is so disrespectful and is against my character and morals!!!!”

The post has since been taken down.

Since his release, the singer has now filed defamation charges against his accuser. His lawyer has asked the Paris Public Prosecutor’s office to investigate the claim as a criminal case, which carries a penalty of five years in prison and a fine of $50,000, according to the New York Times.

Brown’s clothing line, Black Pyramid has released t-shirts that read “This B**** Lyin.” The original design debuted after model Baylee Curran accused Brown of threatening her with a gun. The new “Paris edition” features the quote over the face of the Mona Lisa.

Brown has had many run-ins with the law throughout his career. Most notably when he physically assaulted his then-girlfriend and fellow musical star, Rihanna, in 2009. Below is a list of Brown’s past offenses.
