Russell Brand, a British comedian and actor, has been interviewed by the Metropolitan Police regarding allegations of historical sex offences. The allegations, which include rape, sexual assaults, and emotional abuse, were brought to light by an investigation conducted by the Sunday Times, the Times, and Channel 4's Dispatches. Brand has previously denied these claims. The Met confirmed that a man in his 40s went to a police station in south London on 16 November to be questioned under caution. The investigation revolves around three non-recent sexual offences. The police stated that their inquiries are ongoing. The investigation was launched in September after multiple allegations were made against Brand. The BBC has reached out to Brand for comment but has yet to receive a response. Brand has consistently denied the allegations, asserting that all his relationships have been consensual. More details will be published as the story develops.
