Brand, 49, has denied all allegations in the past, calling them “very, very hurtful.” He is currently believed to be in the United States and has been asked to appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on May 2, 2025.

The Crown Prosecution Service said it carefully reviewed the evidence before authorising the charges. They reminded the public that Brand is presumed innocent and has the right to a fair trial.
