Chris brown breaks silence with six-word statement after leaving uk prison

CHRIS BROWN HAS BROKEN HIS SILENCE WITH A BOLD STATEMENT FOLLOWING HIS RELEASE FROM HMP FORREST BANK IN SALFORD. 22:43, 21 May 2025 Chris Brown has spoken out on social media following his

release from prison today after he was granted bail. The singer, who was recently charged with grievous bodily harm, was freed from HMP Forrest Bank in Salford. The arrest occurred just

weeks before he was set to perform across the UK in cities including Glasgow, Manchester, Birmingham, London, and Cardiff. The 36-year-old will entertain audiences at Hampden Park on

Tuesday, July 1. However, prior to his UK performances, Chris's European tour was put at risk when he was detained in custody, initially until his next court hearing on June 13. But on

Wednesday, May 21, the R&B star was granted bail at Southwark Magistrates Court. Despite Brown not being present in court, Judge Tony Baumgartner confirmed that his planned tour dates

worldwide can still proceed. During the hearing, the musician was granted bail. The Forever chanter took to Instagram to share a message with his 144 million followers, writing: "From

the cage to the stage! ! ! Breezybowl." Article continues below The post likely refers to the fact that Brown's bail conditions will allow him to perform at upcoming tour dates

across Europe before his next court appearance, which is scheduled for next month. Brown was seen leaving the prison in a silver Mercedes Benz Vito earlier today (May 21). The vehicle sped

away from the scene, with photographers trying to get a glimpse of the singer. Prior to his release, members of Brown's team had arrived at the prison, including one person carrying a

JD Sports bag and white trainers, which were likely for the singer to change into. Brown was apprehended at the Lowry Hotel, Salford, on May 15 after flying into nearby Manchester Airport to

rehearse for his forthcoming Breezy Bowl XX 20th anniversary tour, reports the Mirror. Brown is required to pay a £5 million security fee to the court, which serves as a financial guarantee

to ensure a defendant returns to court and may be forfeited if they violate bail conditions. Just a day following his arrest, Chris appeared at Manchester Magistrates Court, where it was

determined that the case was too serious to be handled at magistrates' level and would be escalated to the Crown. At the hearing, he wore black trousers and a plain black T-shirt and

only spoke to confirm his name, Christopher Maurice Brown, his date of birth and his address, which he listed as The Lowry Hotel, on Dearmans Place, Salford. Adele Kelly, Deputy Chief Crown

Prosecutor for CPS London North, declared earlier in the month: "We have authorised the Metropolitan Police to charge Chris Brown, 36, with one count of grievous bodily harm, contrary

to section 18 of the Offences Against the Person Act 1861. "The alleged incident occurred in London on February 19, 2023. He will have his first court appearance on Friday, May 16 at

Manchester Magistrates' Court. The Crown Prosecution Service reminds all concerned that criminal proceedings against this defendant are active and that he has the right to a fair trial.

"It is extremely important that there should be no reporting, commentary or sharing of information online which could in any way prejudice these proceedings. The court heard that Brown

had left the UK after the alleged attack and hadn't returned for two years." JOIN THE DAILY RECORD WHATSAPP COMMUNITY! Get the latest news sent straight to your messages by

announcing his tour earlier this year, spoke of his anticipation: "CELEBRATING 20 years of CB. So excited to be able to share this moment with the world and my amazing fans. "I
