Comedian Russell Brand has been convicted at a London court of raping one woman and sexually assaulting three others between 2004 and 2009. The jury cleared him of two other rape charges and one attempted indecent assault after a four-week trial. Brand, who was denied bail, will be sentenced on Monday, and he could face a long prison term. Police are also still looking into two further alleged rapes, one involving a girl who was 16 at the time. Brand has denied all the charges.
