After Chris Brown filed a defamation suit against his accuser, the 24-year-old woman who says he raped her has released a statement clarifying her claims.
Lawyers for the woman have said that while she was not pressured ‘physically’ to have sex with the singer, 29, she was under ‘great psychological pressure’ in a ‘masculine environment’.
The statement reads: ‘There were forced sexual relations […] It was a masculine environment. My client explains that it was non-consensual sex. ‘She was not pressured physically. This was a very particular environment with great psychological pressure.’ The young woman, who has not been named for legal reasons, says she was ‘cornered her in a room that was locked’ where she was faced with ‘forced sexual relations,’ TMZ reports.
She says she was surrounded by ‘older men, men who you imagine to be buff.’ Brown, who was arrested in Paris with two other men on Monday, vehemently denies the accusations and was released without charges within 24 hours and free to leave the country. The website simultaneously claims Paris police ‘had problems with the accuser’s story’.
