Chris Brown Accuser Alleges Multiple Rapes, Lawyer Says

by Associated Press

   PARIS --

   The lawyer for a woman who filed a rape complaint in Paris against
   American singer Chris Brown and two other men says she was raped four
   times during a drug-fueled party.

   Police questioned Brown and the others before releasing them from
   custody without charges Tuesday. The Paris prosecutor's office says the
   investigation hasn't been closed.
   Lawyer Franck Serfati told The Associated Press on Thursday the woman
   alleges she was forced to take cocaine and raped by the three men at a
   Paris hotel.

   Brown's legal representative in France, Raphael Chiche, didn't
   immediately respond to several calls and messages seeking comment.
   Chiche tweeted Wednesday he was preparing a defamation complaint that
   "(hash)ChrisBrown will file against his accuser."
   The Associated Press identifies people making sexual assault
   allegations who agree to be named. Serfati's client requested
   anonymity.
